    A. An increase of $4,500

    Explanation:

    For computing the total cost change, first we have to determine the total cost which is shown below

    = Direct Materials cost + Direct Labor costs + variable overhead costs

    = $21,000 + $5,500 + $19,000

    = $45,500

    And, the outside purchase is $50,000

    So, the total cost change would be

    = $50,000 - $45,500

    = $4,500 increase
