lo 2.3markson and sons leases a copy machine with terms that include a fixed fee each month plus a charge for each copy made. markson made 9,000 copies and paid a total of $480 in january. in april, they paid $320 for 5,000 copies. what is the variable cost per copy if markson uses the high-low method to analyze costs?

0.04$ per copy

Explanation:

The high- low cost method for calculating variable cost per unit can be calculated through the following formula:

Variable cost per unit=Total cost at highest activity-Total cost at lowest activity/Number of units at highest activity-Number of units at lowest activity.

Variable cost per unit=480-320/9000-5000

                                 =0.04$ per copy

explanation:

a gas is not used in hydraulic machines as the fluid because gas is easily compressible and so if a gas is used, the energy would mostly go into compressing a gas. therefore a liquid is used in hydraulic machines as the fluid.
