For each of the four situations, calculate the cost basis per device based on the information shown above. (Round intermediate calculations and final answers to 2 decimal places.)
A. Only the differential production costs could be considered as the cost basis.
B. The total cost per device for normal production of 60,000 devices could be used as the cost basis.
C. The total cost per device for productions of 66,000 devices, excluding marketing costs, could be used as the cost basis.
D. The total cost per device for production of 66,000 devices, including marketing costs, could be used as the cost basis.
Carla Vista Manufacturing manufactures a single product. Annual production costs incurred in the manufacturing process are shown
below for the production of 2,900 units. The company's Utilities and Maintenance costs are mixed costs. The fixed portions of these
costs are $390 and $290, respectively.
Calculate the expected costs to be incurred when production is 4,900 units. Use your knowledge of cost behavior to determine which
of the other costs are foxed or variable.

The company’s two departments are named after the products; for example, Product M is made in Department M. Yalland’s accountant has identified the following annual costs associated with these two products.
