Xercise 11-3 The controller of Norton Industries has collected the following monthly expense data for use in analyzing the cost behavior of maintenance costs. Month Total Maintenance Costs Total Machine Hours January $2,700 300 February 3,000 350 March 3,600 500 April 4,500 690 May 3,200 500 June 5,500 700 Determine the variable cost components using the high-low method. (Round variable cost to 2 decimal places e. g. 12.25.) Variable cost per machine hour $ LINK TO TEXT LINK TO TEXT Determine the fixed cost components using the high-low method. (Round answer to 0 decimal places e. g. 2,520.) Total fixed costs $

Variable per hour is $7

total variable costs for 700 hours=$4900

Fixed costs is $600

Explanation:

Under the high-low method,variable cost formula is as stated below

variable cost=highest maintenance cost-lowest maintenance/machine hours at highest maintenance cost-machine hours at the lowest maintenance cost

highest maintenance cost is $5500

lowest maintenance is $2700

machine hours at highest maintenance cost is 700 hours

machine hours at lowest maintenance cost is 300 hours

variable cost=($5500-$2700)/(700-300)

variable cost=$7

Fixed cost=total cost-total variable cost

total variable cost for 700 hours =$7*700=$4,900

Fixed cost=$5,500-$4900

fixed cost=$600

idk the answer so dont listen too me

employers prefer to hire ingenious, resourceful people because ingenious people may be more liable to engage in unethical deportment as they can cerebrate outside of the box
