Q/ Machine A has a fixed cost of $40000 per year and a variable cost of S60 per unit. Machine B has an unknown fixed cost, but with this process 200 units can be produced each month at a total variable cost of $2000, If the total costs of the two machines break even at a production rate of 2000 units per year, what is the fixed cost of machine B? Let FCB - fixed cost for B. Variable cost for B = 2000/200 = S10/unit Total costs are equal at 2000 units per year. Then, 40,000 + 60(2000 units) = FCB + 10(2000 units) FCB = $140,000 per year
