Answer #1

Out of the given statements, variable cost is:

A cost that is $26,000 when production is 65,000, and $36,400 when production is 91,000.

Correct option is (c)

Variable cost per unit remains same at all the levels of output.

Variable cost per unit when 65,000 units are produced = 26,000/65,000

= $0.4

Variable cost per unit when 91,000 units are produced = 36,400/91,000

= $0.4

Costs given in statements (a) and (d) are fixed costs and cost given in statement (b) is a mixed cost.
