Working Note:
Calculation of Variable cost under High low method:
Now you can calculate Fixed Cost:
Fixed cost = Total cost of activity - Activity unit X Variable cost per unit
Fixed cost = $24,940 - (7400 X $0.29)
Fixed cost = $24,940 - $2,146
Fixed cost = $22,794
Note: Fixed cost can vary if you calculate it by taking lowest activity base due to round off in case of variable cost the actual variable cost is $.29412 (Without round off).
I hope this clear your doubt.
