Respuesta :

Answer:

c. $272

Explanation:

Overhead costs (O) = $10,000 per month

Direct production costs (Pc) = $136 per unit

Units produced (n) = 1,600 units

The total manufacturing cost per unit for a production activity of 1,600 units is given by:

[tex]C=\frac{(P_C*n)+(O*12)}{n}\\C=\frac{(136*1,600)+120,000}{1,600}\\C=\$211[/tex]

For a desired gross profit per unit of $61, the selling price should be:

[tex]61=S-211\\S=\$272[/tex]

The answer is c. $272
