Dake Corporation's relevant range of activity is 2,000 units to 5,000 units. When it produces and sells 3,500 units, its average costs per unit are as follows:
| Average Cost per Unit | ||
| Direct materials | $ | 6.75 | 
| Direct labor | $ | 3.90 | 
| Variable manufacturing overhead | $ | 1.50 | 
| Fixed manufacturing overhead | $ | 4.00 | 
| Fixed selling expense | $ | 1.10 | 
| Fixed administrative expense | $ | 0.80 | 
| Sales commissions | $ | 0.90 | 
| Variable administrative expense | $ | 0.80 | 
For financial reporting purposes, the total amount of product costs incurred to make 3,500 units is closest to:
Product costs = Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing overhead
= (3,500 * $6.75) + (3,500 * $3.9) + (3,500 * $1.5) + (3,500 * $4)
= $56,525
