Step-by-step explanation:

The direct cost

Add: Northridge store. $5,730

Add: Cosmetic department cost of sales $36,700

Add:Cosmetic department managers salary $4,270

---------

46,700

-----------

Activity level of 4,000 unit

TVC÷ Quantity

= 241,400 ÷ 4000

= 60.3

= $60 to the nearest dollar

TFC it does not change with the level of activity

Activity level 4,100 unit

TVC ÷ Quantity

= 241,200 ÷ 4,100

= 58.8

= $59

TFC it does not change with the level of activity

TC = TFC + TVC

= 241,200 + 107,994

= $394,194

AVC per unit

= TVC ÷ Quantity

= 241,200 ÷ 4,100

= $58

AFC per unit

= TFC ÷ Quantity

= 107,994 ÷ 4,100

= $26

ATC per unit

TC ÷ Quantity

= 394,194 ÷ 4,100

= $96

AC

= TC ÷ Quantity

= 394,194÷ 4,100

=96.14

To assign overhead to product V09X based on cost unit

The level of activity in batches

= (83.00 × 71) + (74.29× 22) +(9.61×494)

= 5,893 + 1,634.38 + 4,747.34

=$12,747.72
