Answer 1

Answer:

$347,600

Step-by-step explanation:

There is fixed startup cost of 242,000 no matter how many units they product.

Also, each unit costs 6 to produce, so to produce 17,600 items, it's going to cost:

17,600 * 6 = 105,600

Along with this the fixed startup cost of 242,000, would make total cost:

Total cost = 242,000 + 105,600 = $347,600
