Alpine Manufacturing has implemented throughput costing and achieved a throughput of $500,000 for the month, with direct material costs of $180,000. Operating expenses totaled $250,000. Management is comparing this to their previous absorption costing system, which would have shown a gross margin of $320,000 on sales of $500,000. What is the primary reason for the difference in reported profitability between the two systems?
