Question:
If you were to drive 10 000 km every year, what would be your variable cost per km?
Given:
Variable cost consist of fuel, oil, maintenance and tyres.
Answer is: R1.6614/km
I dont know how to get to the answer. Thanks
Insurance, interest, and licence and registration fees are fixed costs.
Variable cost per km = fuel + oil + maintenance + tyres
Fuel costs/ km = 14.5/11 = Rs. 1.3
Oil costs/km = 40/600 = 0.06
Maintenance costs per km = 2400/10000 = 0.24
Tyres cost/km = 700×4 / 40000 = 0.07
Total variable costs = 1.3 + 0.06 + 0.24 + 0.07 = 0.67 (approximately)
