Answer:

D. ​$242,200

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable cost is that cost which is changes when there is a change in the level of production.

It includes the direct material cost, direct labor cost, factory supplies, etc

The computation of the total variable cost is shown below:

= Direct material cost + direct labor cost + packaging cost

= $85,000 + $138,000 + $19,200

= $242,200

Therefore we included these three cost for the calculation of the variable cost
