a) High Low Method :
Variable Cost = (Highest Activity Cost−Lowest Activity Cost)/(Highest Activity Units-Lowest Activity Units)
Highest Activity Units = 400 Miles
Highest Activity Cost = $ 10,400
Lowest Activity Units = 100 Miles
Lowest Activity Cost = $ 6200
Variable Cost = ($10,400 - $6200)/(400-100)
Variable Cost Per Mile = $ 14 per Mile.
Fixed Cost = Highest Activity Cost − (Variable Cost * Highest activity Units)
Fixed Cost = $ 10,400 - ($14*400)
Fixed Cost = $ 4,800
b) Scatter Diagram :
Equation (y = mx+c ) = Labour Cost = $14*(Miles) + Fixed Cost
Eg: Labour Cost at 400 Miles = $14 * 400 + 4800
Labour Cost = $10,400
c) If the wage rate increases by 8%, Variable cost Per Mile = ($14 + 8%)
Revised Variable cost per Mile = $ 15.12
Cost Equation will be : Labour Cost = $15.12 * (Miles) + Fixed Cost
Labour Cost = $15.12 * (Miles) + $ 4,800
