Answer 1

Answer:

the total cost in the flexible budget is $8,100

Explanation:

The computation of the total cost in the flexible budget is shown below;

Variable cost per unit is

=  $4000 ÷ 8,000 units  

= 0.50 per unit

The total cost for the flexible budget is

= Variable costs+ fixed costs

= 0.5 × 8,200 units + $4,000

= $4,100 + $4,000

= $8,100

Hence, the total cost in the flexible budget is $8,100
