How much would variable costing operating income differ between the two production plans? 0 Feedback Check My Work a. Remember that under variable costing, regardless of whether 7,700 units or 9,800 units are manufactured, no fixed manufacturing costs are allocated to the units manufactured. Instead, all fixed manufacturing costs are treated as a period expense. Therefore the change in units times the per unit fixed costs for the greater production level is the difference in income between the two costing methods. b.
