If I remember right, we need to add up all the variable costs per unit. I think I got $8, but I might have missed something.

I remember a practice question where we had to separate fixed and variable costs, but I can't recall the exact percentages for overheads.

I think the marginal cost is mostly about variable costs, but I'm not sure if I calculated the overheads correctly.

I feel like the selling and distribution overheads play a big role here, but I’m uncertain about how to apply the percentages to the total costs.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know drug screening is a sensitive topic, so I'll need to carefully consider the legal and ethical implications of each option.
