    The monthly fixed manufacturing cost is $7500.

    Explanation:

    Variable cost per unit = change in total cost / change in no of units

    = 6900-5000/8000-4200

    = 0.5 per unit

    Fixed cost = Total manfacturing cost - variable cost at a 4200 level

    = 5000 - (4200*0.5)

    = 5000 - 2100

    = $2900

    If company produces 9200 units:

    Total manfacturing costs = fixed costs + 9200*variable cost per unit

    = 2900 + (9200*0.5)

    = $7500

    Therefore, The monthly fixed manufacturing cost is $7500.
