Units Produced

Total cost

March

10050

17285

April

8900

15853

May

10500

17547

June

8730

15423

July

9410

16273

The high-low method involves taking the highest level of activity and the lowest level of activity and comparing the total costs at each level.                               

Units

Total cost

High activity level

10500

17547

Low activity level

8730

15423

                               

                               

Variable cost per unit     =             Change in total cost

                                                              Change in quantity

                               

                            = 17547-15423

                                10500-8730

                               

                                =2124

                                1770

                               

                                =1.2 per unit

                               

                               

Fixed Cost           =             Total cost-Variable Cost

Let us take at 10500 activity         (since fixed remains same at any level of activity)            

                                =17547-(10500*1.2)

                               

Fixed Cost           =             4947

                               

               

               

Cost formula      =             Variable cost +Fixed Cost

                                              1.2 per unit produced+4947

                               

Total cost to produce 9400 units                              

                               

                                =Variable cost +Fixed Cost

                                =1.2*9400+4947

                                =16227
