Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Total fixed costs = $240,000

At the production volume of 171,000 units,

Total cost = $400,000

Total variable cost = Total cost - Total fixed costs

                               = $400,000 - $240,000

                               = $160,000

Variable cost per unit:

= Total variable cost ÷ Number of units produced

= $160,000 ÷ 171,000 units

= $0.935 per unit or $0.94 per unit
