chris12345 this is quite tricky
well done if you got this one....can anyone explain this for me?
8thlegend 500 is just thrown out there to trick you.

If it said per unit cost then you would multiply it by 500.

They give you the Total fixed cost + total variable cost.

You just add the 2 and will get the answer.
Oarona Total costs= total fixed costs + total variable costs
