Why do accountants normally calculate cost per unit as an average?

Determining the exact cost of a product is virtually impossible.

Some manufacturing-related costs cannot be accurately traced to specific units of product.

Even when producing multiple units of the same product, normal variations occur in the amount of materials and labor used.

All of these are justifications for computing average unit costs.

The following cost functions apply to X Company's regular production and sales during the year:

  Cost of goods sold:   $6.05 (X) + $131,670

  Selling and administrative expenses:   $1.02 (X) + $81,130

where X is the number of units produced and sold. During the year, X Company sold 66,500 units for $17.00 each. At the end of the year, a company offered to buy 4,620 units but was only willing to pay $12.00 each. X Company had the capacity to produce the additional 4,620 units.
