CALCULATION:

Variable cost per unit =

Total variable cost / No. of disk

Fixed cost per unit    =

Total Fixed cost / No. of disk

Total cost per unit     =

Total cost / No. of disk

For (d) Total variable cost = variable cost perunit X no. of disk

    0.4 X 1,20,000

48,000

Same as j

              Fixed cost is same.
