Determine the relevant range of activity for this product.
Calculate the variable costs per unit within the relevant range.
Indicate the fixed cost within the relevant range.
Answer:
(1) Relevant range if output is that range of output within with average variable cost remains constant. Here, average variable cost (= Direct material cost / Output) is constant at $2.4 within 3,000 to 8,000 units, so this is the relevant range.
(2) variable cost per unit = $7,200 / 3,000 = $2.40 per unit
(3) Fixed cost within relevant range = $8,464

11) True or False: As activity decreases within the relevant range, fixed costs remain constant on a per unit basis. 13) True or False: Within the relevant range, a change in activity results in a change in variable cost per unit and total fixed cost.
Within the relevant range, a change in activity results in a change in variable cost per unit and total fixed cost. True or False
Within the relevant range, as the number of units produced increases: the variable cost per unit will increase O the fixed cost per unit will decrease O total variable costs will remain the same O total fixed costs will decrease
