WooCommerce does not show price suffix for variable products if the suffix contains placeholder variables. The reason is explained in the comment of WC_Product_Variable::get_price_html method:

Note: Variable prices do not show suffixes like other product types. This is due to some things like tax classes being set at variation level which could differ from the parent price. The only way to show accurate prices would be to load the variation and get IT’s price, which adds extra overhead and still has edge cases where the values would be inaccurate.

If you still want to show the price suffix just like for normal products, do as Mike Jolley laconically says in this issue report:

Use the filter in that method if you want to force it programmatically.

So, here is my take on what that filter would look like:

add_filter('woocommerce_get_price_suffix', function ( $html, $product, $price, $qty ) {
     if ( ! $html && $product instanceof WC_Product_Variable) {
         // Copied from plugins/woocommerce/includes/abstracts/abstract-wc-product.php#get_price_suffix
         if ( ( $suffix = get_option( 'woocommerce_price_display_suffix' ) ) 
             && wc_tax_enabled() 
             && 'taxable' === $product->get_tax_status() 
         ) {
             $replacements = array(
                 '{price_including_tax}' => wc_price( wc_get_price_including_tax( $product, array( 'qty' => $qty, 'price' => $price ) ) ),
                 '{price_excluding_tax}' => wc_price( wc_get_price_excluding_tax( $product, array( 'qty' => $qty, 'price' => $price ) ) ),
             );
             $html = str_replace( array_keys( $replacements ), array_values( $replacements ), ' <small class="woocommerce-price-suffix">' . wp_kses_post( $suffix ) . '</small>' );
         }
     }
 
     return $html;
}, 10, 4);
