    B) $1.54/unit.

    Explanation:

    Let's look at what we have;

    Total Cost = $ 500,000; Fixed Cost = $ 260,000

    Therefore, the Variable Cost will be = $500,000 - $260,000

    = $ 240,000

    Number of Units = 156,000 Units

    Variable cost per unit = Total Variable Cost / Number of Units

    = $ 240,000 / 156,000 Units

    = $ 1.538 Per Unit

    The correct answer is B. $ 1.54 / Unit.
