Explanation / Answer

Hey Dear Student !!

Answer would be $517306

Total Cost to the Stains Devision: Variable Cost + Fixed Cost

Variable cost:
Total Actual Cost/Total Actual Units of both Devisions X Actual Units of Stains Devision

213900/69000X47990

3.10 X 47990= $148769


Fixed Cost: 65% of Total Actual Cost

566980X65%= $368537

Total Cost:
148769+368537= $517306
