Answer:
The question is incomplete, below is the complete question and accompanying data:
Martinez Company's relevant range of production is 8,500 units to 13,500 units. When it produces and sells 11,000 units, its unit costs are as follows:
Amount per Unit
Direct materials $7.00
Direct labor $4.50
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.40
Fixed manufacturing overhead $5.00
Fixed selling expense $4.00
Fixed administrative expense $2.10
Sales commissions $1.10
Variable administrative expense $0.55
What total incremental cost will Martinez incur if it increases production from 11,000 to 11,001 units? (Round answers to 2 decimal places)
Answer
total incremental cost = $13.45
Explanation:
in the case of an increase in production quantity by 1 unit, (11,000 to 11,0001), only the variable costs will increase, because variable costs are those costs that increase as the unit of output/production increases.
The variable costs here are:
Direct material = $7.00
Direct labor = $4.50
variable manufacturing overhead = $1.40
variable administrative expenses =$0.55
Total incremental cost = 7.00 + 4.50 + 1.40 + 0.55 = $13.45
Therefore, total incremental cost = $13.45
