Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Q=15 million

Q*=25 million

Unitary variable cost= $3

Fixed manufacturing overhead costs $3million per year

A) For Q:

Total cost= 3000000+15000000*3= $63000000

B) Average cost per unit=63000000/15000000=$4.2

C) Fixed cost per unit= 3000000/15000000= $0.2

D) Q*=25000000

Total cost= 30000000+25000000*3=$78000000

E) Fixed cost per unit= 3000000/25000000= $0.12

D) It decreases because the fixed costs are distributed by more units.
