    Absorption costing per unit = $65.7

    Variable costing = $53.7

    Explanation:

    Absorption costing is method of costing where overheads are charged to units produced using volume-based bases. e. g machine hours, labour hours e. t. c. Units are valued using full cost per unit

    Full cost per unit = Direct material cost + direct labor cost, 100/10,175 units

    Manufacturing cost per unit = + Variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed production overhead

    fixed manufacturing overhead = $12223.70+13.10 + 16.90 + 12 = $65.7

    Variable costing method

    Variable costing values units produced using marginal cost.

    Manufacturing cost per unit = Direct material cost + direct labor cost + Variable manufacturing overhead

    Manufacturing cost per unit = 23.70+13.10 + 16.90 = $53.7
