There
may be some debate over classifications of individual items, especially with regard
to cost variability.

2-22 (15–20 min.) Variable costs and fixed costs.
1. Variable manufacturing cost per vehicle
Steel $1,500 per Surfer
Tires 625 per Surfer
Direct manufacturing labor 700 per Surfer
Total $2,825 per Surfer
Fixed manufacturing costs per month
Plant management costs
($1,200,000 ÷ 12) $ 100,000
Cost of leasing equipment ($1,800,000
÷ 12) 150,000
City
license (for 110 surfers or 550 tires) 74,500
Total
fixed manufacturing costs $324,500
Fixed costs per month (1 surfer takes 5
tires)
0 to 100 surfers per month = $100,000 + $150,000 + $50,000 = $300,000
101 to 200 surfers per month = $100,000 + $150,000 + $74,500 = $324,500
More than 200 surfers per month = $100,000 + $150,000 + $200,000 = $450,000
2.
The concept of relevant range is potentially
relevant for both graphs. However, the question does not place restrictions on
the unit variable costs. The relevant range for the total fixed costs is from 0
to 100 surfers; 101 to 200 surfers; more than 200 surfers. Within these ranges,
the total fixed costs do not change in total.

The unit cost
for 100 vehicles produced per month is $5,825, while for 225 vehicles it is
only $4,825. This difference is caused by the fixed cost increment of $150,000
(an increase of 50%, $150,000 ÷ $300,000
= 50%) being spread over an increment of 125 (225 – 100) vehicles (an increase
of 125%, 125 ÷ 100). The fixed
cost per unit is therefore lower.
