Required:1.Enter the dollar amount of each cost item under the appropriate headings. As examples, this has been done already for the first two items in the preceding list.Note that each cost item is classified in two ways: first, as variable or fixed with respect to the number of units produced and sold; and second, as a selling and administrative cost or a product cost. (If the item is a product cost, it should also be classified as either direct or indirect as shown.)

2.Compute the average product cost per patio set.(Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

3.Assume that production drops to only 1,000 sets quarterly. Would you expect the average product cost per patio set to increase, decrease, or remain unchanged?

IncreaseDecreaseRemain unchanged

4.Refer to the original data. The president's brother-in-law has considered making a patio set and has priced the necessary materials at a building supply store. He has asked the president if he could purchase a patio set from the Mahela Company "at cost," and the president has agreed to let him do so.

a.Would you expect any disagreement over the price the brother-in-law should pay? What price does the president probably have in mind?(Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
