Why are you attempting a question for which you do not have an answer? You should be using a Revision Kit from one of the ACCA Approved Publishers - they have answers and workings!! The standard total variable cost for the actual production must have been 383,160 - 9,300 = $373,860. Given that they actually produced 18,600 units, the standard variable cost per unit must be 373,860 / 18,600 = $20.10.
