Answer:
$0.6 per unit
Explanation:
The computation of the variable rate per unit of output is shown below:
But before that first we have to determine the variable cost which is
= Total utilities cost - fixed cost
= $2,600 - $2,000
= $600
And the number of units produced is 1,000 units
So, the variable rate per unit of output for utilities cost is
= $600 ÷ 1,000 units
= $0.6 per unit
