Explanation:

The options that correctly depict amounts included in the per-unit cost of inventory under variable costing and absorption costing is:

Variable costing = $85

ii. Absorption costing = Variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing overhead

Absorption costing = $85 + $20

Absorption costing = $105
