Types of Cost Behavior Patterns
Recall the summary of our cost behavior
discussion from Chapter 2.
Summary of Variable and Fixed Cost Behavior
Cost

In Total

Per Unit

Variable

Total variable cost is
proportional to the activity

level within the relevant range.

Variable cost per unit remains
the same over wide ranges
of activity.

Fixed

Total fixed cost remains the
same even when the activity
level changes within the
relevant range.

Fixed cost per unit goes
down as activity level goes up.

Fixed Costs and Relevant Range
Example: Office space
is available at a rental
rate of $30,000 per year
in increments of 1,000
square feet. As the
business grows more
space is rented,
increasing the total cost.

Fixed Costs and Relevant Range

How does this type
of fixed cost differ
from a step-variable
cost?

Irwin/McGraw-Hill

Step-variable costs
can be adjusted more
quickly and . . .
The width of the
activity steps is much
wider for the fixed
cost.

Mixed Costs
A mixed cost
has both fixed
and variable
components.

Account Analysis

Each account is classified as either
variable or fixed based on the analyst’s
knowledge of how the account behaves.
Irwin/McGraw-Hill

Engineering Estimates

Cost estimates are based on an evaluation
of production methods, and material, labor
and overhead requirements.
Irwin/McGraw-Hill

The High-Low Method
WiseCo recorded the following production activity and
maintenance costs for two months:

High activity level
Low activity level
Change

Units
9,000
5,000
4,000

Cost
$ 9,700
6,100
$ 3,600

Using these two levels of activity, compute:
 the variable cost per unit;
 the fixed cost; and then
 express the costs in equation form Y = a + bX.
