Answer:
option (d) $200.00
Explanation:
Average total cost for 100 pairs = $2.50
Marginal cost for every pair = $10.00
Now,
Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost
or
Fixed cost = Total cost - variable cost
or
Fixed cost = (Average total cost × 100) - (Marginal cost × 100)
= ($2.5 × 100) - ($1 × 100)
= $250 - $100
= $150
thus,
Total cost to produce 50 pairs of oven gloves
= fixed cost + variable cost
= $150 + (50 × $1)
= $150 + $50
= $200
Hence,
option (d) $200.00
