February's total cost of production is calculated as follows:

 

  Units
Ending finished goods (8,000 * 80%) 6,400
Sale 4,000
Less: Begining finished goods (4,000 * 80%) (3,200)
Total cost of production 7,200

Total cost of production in dollar amount = 7,200 * $10

= 72,000

So correct answer is an option (c) $72,000
