Answer:

$11.2 per unit

Explanation:

The computation of the variable cost per unit is shown below:

= Variable direct materials cost per unit + Variable direct labor cost per unit + Variable factory overhead cost per unit + Variable selling and administrative cost per unit

= $4.34 per unit + $5.18 per unit + $0.98 per unit + $0.70 per unit

= $11.2 per unit

We simply added the entire variable cost per unit so that the accuracy per unit could be reached
