Answer:

Results are below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Variable manufacturing cost $195

Applied fixed manufacturing cost 105

Variable selling and administrative cost 75

Allocated fixed selling and administrative cost 90

1)

Unitary variable cost= $195

Selling price= 195*2.1

Selling price= $409.5

2)

Total variable cost= 195 + 75= $270

Selling price= 270*1.65

Selling price= $445.5

3)

The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.

Total absorption cost= 195 + 105= $300

Selling price= 300*1.2

Selling price= $360
