Answer 1

Unit manufactured = 22000 unit sold+ 3200 ending inventory - 0 beginning inventory = 25200 units

Variable cost of goods manufactured = Total cost of goods manufactured -fixed manufacturing cost

                = 2016000- 201600

                = 1814400

variable cost of goods sold = 1814400 *22000/25200 = 1584000

variable selling and administrative cost = 160000-110000 = 50000
