Explanation / Answer

5. If 24,000 units are produced, what is the average fixed manufacturing cost per unit produced?

Fixed manufacturing cost = 27500*7.10 = 195250

Average fixed manufacturing cost per unit produced = 195250/24000 = 8.14 per unit

6. If 31,000 units are produced, what is the average fixed manufacturing cost per unit produced?

Fixed manufacturing cost = 27500*7.10 = 195250

Average fixed manufacturing cost per unit produced = 195250/31000 = 6.30 per unit
