-Total Unit Costs (#6) are the Manufacturing Costs plus all other company expenses per unit. This value is any expenses your company occurs, divided by the number of vehicles you produce, added to your Manufacturing Costs. These expenses include all branches, marketing, RnD, racing, construction costs, etc. The more vehicles you produce, the lower these costs will be per unit. +Total Unit Costs (#6) are the Manufacturing Costs plus all other company expenses per unit.

 The Manufacturing Costs and Total Unit Costs will fluctuate based on company expenditures and the number of vehicles you produce. We highly recommend that you DO NOT raise your price to these numbers. If you raise your prices, you will cause less demand. When there is less demand, you will produce fewer vehicles, and that will cause these two metrics to increase. Instead, look for ways to lower these metrics by either reducing expenses or increasing production. The Manufacturing Costs and Total Unit Costs will fluctuate based on company expenditures and the number of vehicles you produce.
