    Total variable cost = 90,000

    Total fixed costs = 8,000

    Total costs = $98,000

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Production of 15,000 units:

    Fixed costs = $8,000

    Total variable cost = $75,000

    We have no reason to believe that the fixed costs will change. If 18,000 units remain in the relevant range, the fixed costs are constant.

    We need to calculate the unitary variable cost:

    Unitary variable cost = 75,000/15,000 = $5

    Now, for 18,000 units:

    Total variable cost = 5*18,000 = 90,000

    Total fixed costs = 8,000

    Total costs = $98,000
