Document Summary
How much are we actually paying for stuff. How much will it cost in the future. The more you spend, the more you get. The price stays the same for a certain amount of activity then jumps. Like rent- stays the same for as much as produced. The higher the activity, the better bang for the buck. It will stay fixed for a longer level of production, then eventually moves up. The certain square feet can produce a certain amount of cookies. Electric bill has a low steady fee. The variable is the amount of electricity used. We"re looking at the numbers on an account basis and eyeball a future number. Make a graph, graph the points, eyeball accurate line. The y intercept should be total fixed cost. Units and costs for high and low activity levels for month. Mx= total variable cost b=total fixed cost (y-intercept) Difference in cost/difference in activity = slope.
