Answer:
$18.60
Explanation:
Target cost:
= Sales revenue - Profit
= (No. of units sold × Selling price per unit) - (Investment require × desired return on investment)
= (20,000 × $21) - ($400,000 × 0.12)
= $420,000 - $48,000
= $372,000
Target cost per unit:
= Target cost ÷ Number of units
= $372,000 ÷ 20,000
= $18.60
Therefore, the target cost per unit is closest to $18.60.

Answer: The fringe benefit is worth $182 more than the additional salary.
Explanation:
The Fringe benefit is valued at $3,600.
The additional salary after taxes is:
= 5,000 - (5,000 * 24%) - (5,000 * 7.65%)
= 5,000 - 1,200 - 382.5
= $3,418
The Fringe benefit is worth more than the salary by:
= 3,600 - 3,418
= $182
