Answer:

Fixed costs = $13,000

Variable costs = $450,000

Explanation:

Fixed costs are costs that do not vary with production. In this question, they are rent payments and monthly payments on meat packaging equipment.

Fixed cost = $10,000 + $3,000 = $13,000

Variable costs are costs that vary with production. In this question, they are the cost of purchase of raw meat, wages and fuel costs.

Variable costs = ($20 + $90 + $40) × 3000 = $450,000
