QUESTION 6

month, and currently makes and sells 9,000 widgets a month. Widgets
normally sell for $6 each, and cost an average of $5 to make,
including fixed costs. The monthly fixed costs are $18,000. Coyote
Corp. has offered to buy 1,000 widgets at $4 each.
What is the "cost" per unit in the context of evaluating the offer

B. $3
The “cost” per unit in this case is the variable cost that must be covered. Since Micro has excess capacity, the only cost the firm incurs to produce an additional 1,000 widgets is the variable cost.
Fixed cost per unit = $18,000 / 9,000 units = $2 per unit
Variable cost per widget = Average cost - Fixed cost per widget = $5 - $2 = $3 per unit
