What was the variable rate per unit of output for utilities cost

Respuesta :

Answer:

$0.6 per unit

Explanation:

The computation of the variable rate per unit of output is shown below:

But before that first we have to determine the variable cost which is

= Total utilities cost - fixed cost

= $2,600 - $2,000

= $600

And the number of units produced is 1,000 units

So, the  variable rate per unit of output for utilities cost is

= $600 ÷ 1,000 units

= $0.6 per unit
