Answer:

a. The variable cost per unit is $21.30

b. The total costs for the year are $5,226,000

c. The cash break-even point is 26,733 units . The accounting break-even point is 43,564 units

Explanation:

a. In order to calculate the variable cost per unit we would have to make the following calculation:

Variable cost = $15.60 + $5.70

= $21.30

b. To calculate the total costs for the year we would have to make the following calculation:

Total costs = $540,000 + 220,000 * $21.30

= $5,226,000

c. To calculate the cash break-even point we would have to make the following calculation:

Cash break-even point = $540,000 / ($41.50 - $21.30)

= 26,733 units

To calculate the accounting break-even point we would have to make the following calculation:

Accounting break-even point = ($540,000 + $340,000) / ($41.50 - $21.30)

= 43,564 units
