Explanation:

Giving the following information:

During 2019, it produced 60000 units

Costs per unit are:

direct materials $23

direct labor $15

variable overhead $4

Fixed manufacturing overhead= 720,000

The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.

Unitary fixed overhead= 720,000/60,000= $12

Now, the unitary manufacturing cost:

Unitary production cost= 23 + 15 + 4 + 12= $54
