250.000??????????????????????????????????????????????????? 5,000
312,500????????????????????????????????????????????????????7,500

Using the high-low method what is the variable cost per unit?
The following diagram represents the behaviour of one element of cost:Which ONE of the following statements is consistent with the above diagram?
An organisation manufactures a single product. The total cost of making 4,000 units is $20,000 and the total cost of making 20,000 units is $40,000. Within this range of activity the total fixed costs remain unchanged. What is the variable cost per unit of the product?
When total purchases of raw material exceed 30,000 units in any one period then all units purchased, including the initial 30,000, are invoiced at a lower cost per unit.Which of the following graphs is consistent with the behaviour of the total materials cost in a period?
The total cost of production for two levels of activity is as follows:
????????????????????????????????????????????? Level 1?????????????????????????? Level 2
Production (units)???????????????? ?3,000???????????????????????????? 5,000
Total cost ($)?????????????????????? ??6,750???????????????????????????? 9,250

The following question is taken from the December 2011 exam paper.
The following shows the total overhead costs for given levels of a company's total output.
Cost??????????????????? ?Output
?? $??????????????????????? Units
?4,000???????????????????1,000
?7,000?????????????????? 2,000
10,000?????????????? ? ?3,000
?9,500?????????????????? 4,000
A step up in fixed costs of $500 occurs at an output level of 3,500 units.
What would be the variable overhead cost per unit (to the nearest $0.01) using the high-low technique?
