Answer:

$21.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The net income is difference between the revenue and the operating expense incurred by the entity.

The unit cost per service is obtained by dividing the operating cost by the number of services provided.

Given that;

Operating expense = $21,500

Number of services provided = 10,000

The unit cost per​ service

= $21,500/10,000

= $21.50 (to the nearest cent)
