April 12,000 26,200
May 18,600 27,600
June 13,000 26,450
July 12,000 26,000

Using the high-low method, what is the variable cost per unit?
Question 2: Rooter's Cleaning Services provided data concerning the costs incurred to clean hotel rooms for which hotel customers pay $150 per night. Data for the past 7 months are as follows:
January February March April May June July

Cleaning cost $6,450 $4,060 $5,100 $4,100 $6,880 $4,200 $6,530
How much are estimated monthly variable costs using the high-low method?
Question 3: A cost is $3,600 at 1,000 units, $7,000 at 2,000 units, and $9,200 at 3,000 units. This cost is a
- mixed cost
- step cost
- variable cost
- fixed cost

Variable cost per unit:
Production $4.00
Selling & administrative 2.00
Fixed costs:
Production $90,600 per year
Selling & administrative 22,800 per year
How many units must be sold to break-even?
Question 6: The use of fixed cost to increase profits at a rate faster than sales increase is called:
- "What if " analysis
- C-V-P analysis
- operating leverage
- contribution margin approach
Question 7: Assume Sparkle Co. expects to sell 150 units next month. The unit sales price is $100, unit variable cost is $45, and the fixed costs per month are $5,000. The margin of safety is:
Question 8: Which of the following statements about the relevant range is true?
