Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Total costs = Product costs + Administrative costs

= ($75 × 30,000) + $85,000 - ($50 × 30,000) + $65,000 = $3,900,000

Total cost per unit =Total cost / Units expected to be sold= $3,900,000 /30,000 = $130

Markup per unit = Total cost per unit × Markup percentage = $130.00 × 25% = $32.5
