Explanation:

For question 1:

Calculating the cost per unit:

[tex]\text{Direct material}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \$5\\\\\text{Direct labor} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \$3\\\\\text{Variable overhead}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \$1.5\\\\\text{Fixed overhead}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \$7\\\\\text{Cost per unit}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \$16.5\\\\[/tex]

For question 2:

Calculating the ending inventory units:

[tex]= \text{Beginning inventory + units produced - ending inventory}\\\\= 0+40,000-38,400\\\\= 1600\ units\\\\[/tex]

Calculating the cost for the Ending inventory:

[tex]=1600\ units \times \$16.5\\\\=\$26,400\\\\[/tex]
