Explanation / Answer

1) Variable cost per desk =(Total cost for highest units - Total cost for lower units)/ Highest unit - lowest unit

($84604-$39477) / (3391-1142)

= $20.06536

Total variable cost of 3391 desk = 3391*20.06536

= $68042

Total cost for 3391 desk = $ 84604

Fixed cost = $84604 - 68042

= $ 16562

2) $ 22177

3) Units Sold = 8921 units

Revenue = $ 187341

Less: variable manufacturing cost = $ 26763

Less: Fixed Manufacturing cost = $ 29341

Less: Variable selling cost = $ 26763

Less: Fixed selling cost = $ 8375

net income = $ 96099
