    Option (d) is correct.

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Average variable cost = $0.30 for each donut

    Fixed cost: Cost of rent and machinery = $20,000

    If the number of donuts produced and sold in one year is 36,500, then

    Average fixed cost:

    = Total fixed cost : Number of units sold

    = $20,000 : 36,500

    = $0.547 or $0.55

    Therefore, the average fixed costs be $0.55 if she sells 36,500 donuts in one year.
