Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) To get the total maintenance cost incurred by Alisha last year?

  • Given Maintenance Cost = $1, 750,000 + $125X
  • Where X = Number of Heart Stents

Since we are told that Last year, Alisha produced 50,000 stents ;

X = 50,000 stents

  • Maintenance Cost = $1, 750,000 + $125(50,000) = $8,000,000

2) The total fixed maintenance cost incurred by Alisha last year = $1, 750,000

3) the total variable maintenance cost incurred by Alisha last year = $6,250,000

4) the maintenance cost per unit produced ?

  • but maintenance cost per unit = Total maintenance cost/Number of stents produced
  • = $8,000,000 / 50,000 = $160

5) the fixed maintenance cost per unit = Fixed maintenance cost/Number of stents produced

  • = $1, 750,000  / 50,000 = $35

6) the variable maintenance cost per unit? = Variable  maintenance cost/Number of stents produced  = $6,250,000 / 50,000 = $125
