    Product cost: ABC Company believes that it has an additional 5000 machine hours available in the current facility before it would need to
    expand. ABC Company uses machine hours to allocate the fixed factory overhead and units sold to allocate the fixed sales expenses. Bases on current research
    ABC Company expects that it will take twice as long to produce the expansion product as it currently takes to produce its existing product.

    a. What is the product cost for the expansion product under absorption and variable costing?
    b. By adding this new expansion product it helps to absorb the fixed factory and sales expenses. How much cheaper does this expansion make the existing
    product?
    c. Assuming ABC Company wants a 40% gross margin for the new product what selling price should it set for the expansion product?
    d. Assuming the same sales mix of these two products what are the contribution margins and break-even points by product?
