Answer:

Explanation:

The cost equation is shown below:

Y = Constant + Volume × Independent variable

where,

Y = operating costs

And, The other items values would remain the same

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $170 + 2,300 units × $260

= $170 + $598,000

= $598,170

Hence, the cost equation is displayed above and the operating costs are $598,170
