Results are below.

Explanation:

I will assume a selling price per unit of $60.

First, we need to calculate the total unitary variable cost:

Total unitary variable cost= direct material + direct labor + varaiboe overhead + variable selling and administrative expense

Total unitary variable cost= 10 + 6 + 4 + 6

Total unitary variable cost= $26

Now, we can structure the income statement:

Sales= 10,000*60= 600,000

Total variable cost= 10,000*26= ( 260,000)

Contribution margin= 340,000

Fixed manufacturing overhead per year= (220,000)

Fixed selling and administrative expense per year= (61,000)

Net operating income= 59,000
