Macroeconomic Variables

Akriti Manufacturing Company produces flower vases. The cost of production for 100 vase includes rent of Rs. 10,000, salary for permanent staff of Rs. 10,000, cost of Labour Rs. 12,000 and Raw material of Rs. 18,000. Due to increased demand of vases the company plans to increase production to 200 vases. The variable cost per vase remains Rs. 300 and the fixed cost does not change.

What is the total variable cost for producing 200 vases?

60,000

The correct answer is Option (3) → 60,000

Variable cost per vase is given as Rs. 300.
To find the total variable cost for producing 200 vases, use the formula:

Total Variable Cost = Variable Cost per Unit × Number of Units
Total Variable Cost = 300 × 200 = 60,000
