Answer 1

Answer:

the fixed cost is $1.72 million  

Explanation:

The computation of the fixed cost is shown below:

= Total cost - variable cost

= $3.4 million - ($4.6 million - $3.4 million) ÷ $3.4 million - $.1.2 million ÷ $2 million

= $3.4 million - 2.8 million × $0.60 million

= $1.72 million

Hence, the fixed cost is $1.72 million
