Answer:

$245,500

Explanation:

Given that;

Net income based on variable costing = $246,000

Beginning inventories = 46,000 units

Ending inventories = 45,000 units

Fixed overhead per unit = $0.50

Inventory = (Beginning inventories - Ending inventories) × Fixed overhead per unit

= (46,000 units - 45,000 units) × $0.50

= 1,000 units × $0.50

= $500

Net income under absorption costing

= Net income based on variable costing - Inventory

= $246,000 - $500

= $245,500
