Machine Hours | Production Cost | |
High level of activity (October) | 17400 | 12270 |
(-) Low level of activity (September) | 13400 | 9650 |
Difference | 4000 | 2620 |
Variable production cost per machine hour = Difference in production cost / Difference in machine hour = 2620 / 4000 | 0.655 |
Now let us calculate the fixed production cost from the data of high level of activity. | |
Total production cost = ( Machine hours * Variable production cost per machine hour ) + Fixed production cost | |
12270 = ( 17400 * 0.655 ) + Fixed production cost | |
12270 = 11397 + Fixed production cost | |
Fixed production cost = 12270 - 11397 | 873 |
Total production cost in January = ( Machine hours * Variable production cost per machine hour ) + Fixed production cost = ( 12500 * 0.655 ) + 873 | 9060.50 |
