Explanation / Answer

Hi,

Please find the detailed answer as follows:

Units Product Cost = (Direct Material + Direct Labor + Overheads)/Units Produced

------

Basic = (10000 + 64500 + 174100*64500/100000)/1000 = $186.79

------

Denominator = (3750 + 35500 + 174100*35500/100000)/250 = $404.22

Thanks.
