3 | 3600 | 6000 |

(a) Determine the fixed- and variable-cost components using the high-low method.
.................................
Solution 2:
Variable cost per machine hour using high low method = (Cost at high level - Cost at low level) / (High level activity - Low level activity)
= ($4,620 - $2,460) / (8000 - 3500)
= $0.48 per machine hour
Fixed costs = $4,620 - (8000*$0.48) = $780
Solution 18a:
Variable cost per machine hour using high low method = (Cost at high level - Cost at low level) / (High level activity - Low level activity)
= ($5,860 - $2,500) / (720 - 300)
= $8 per machine hour
Fixed costs = $5,860 - (720*$8) = $100
Solution 18b:
Estimated cost at 500 machine hours = $100 + 500*$8 = $4,100
Amount differ from march cost = $4,100 - $3,600 = $500
