Sagot :

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is given below:

As we know that

The Variable cost per unit is

= (Highest activity cost- Lowest activity cost) ÷ (Highest activity units- Lowest activity units)

Particulars              Total Cost Units

Highest units       111,250.00        5,475.00

Lowest units         6,250.00 225.00

Difference       105,000.00 5,250.00

Variable cost per unit                 20.00  

Now

Fixed cost= Highest activity cost- (Highest units × Variable cost per unit)

= $111,250 - (5475 × 20)

=  $1,750.00
