Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

The variable cost is $27, and the fixed costs are $11.  

The price charged for the product is $56.  

A wholesaler offers to buy 3,500 units at $36 each.  

This special order will result in additional shipping costs of $1.15 per unit.  

The average variable cost incurred in this order is  

= $27 + $1.15

= $28.15

Profits earned

= Total revenue - Total variable cost

= [tex](3,500\times 36) - (3,500\times28.15)[/tex]

= $126,000 - $98,525

= $27,475
