Assume that MTA Sandwiches sells sandwiches for $3.40 each. The cost of each sandwich follows: Materials $ 0.80
Labor 0.70
Variable overhead 0.50
Fixed overhead ($20,805 per month, 21,900 units per month) 0.95
Total cost per sandwich $ 2.95
One of MTA's regular customers asked the company to fill a special order of sandwiches at a selling price of $2.45 each for a fund-raising event sponsored by a social club at the local college.
