Answer 1

Notes-

Variable cost per unit will be same at all levels of poduction:

Therefore, variable cost per unit = Total variable cost/No. of units= $191400/66000 =$2.90

Total Variable cost at 86000 units = No. of units x variale cost per unit = 86000 x$2.90 =$249400

Total Variable cost at 106000 units = No. of units x variale cost per unit = 106000 x$2.90 =$307400

Total Fixed cost will be same irrespective of the no. of units produced, That means total fixed costs at all levels of production will be $400000

Fixed cost per unit at 66000 units = Total fixed cost/No. of units =$400000/66000 =$6.06

Fixed cost per unit at 86000 units = Total fixed cost/No. of units =$400000/86000 =$4.65

Fixed cost per unit at 106000 units = Total fixed cost/No. of units =$400000/106000 =$3.77
