    The cost equation is shown below:

    Y = Constant + Volume * Independent variable

    where,

    Y = operating costs

    And, The other items values would remain the same

    Now put these values to the above formula

    So, the value would equal to

    = $170 + 2,300 units * $260

    = $170 + $598,000

    = $598,170

    Hence, the cost equation is displayed above and the operating costs are $598,170
