Based on the given data, we can see that the cost per customer is $4.83 ($7,000/1,450). Therefore, to estimate the total cost for next month, we can multiply the estimated number of customers by the cost per customer. Thus, the estimated cost for next month would be:
1,450 customers x $4.83 cost per customer = $6,996
Therefore, the best choice is C.
