A number of graphs displaying cost behavior patterns are shown
on the next page. The vertical axis on each graph represents total
cost and the horizontal axis represents the level of activity
(volume),
- Cost of raw materials. where the cost starts at $7.50 per unit
and then decreases by 5 cents per unit for each of the first 100
units purchased, after which it remains constant at $2.50 per
unit.
Which chart? Please explain the logic.
