Use the high-low method to determine the cost equation and use machine hours as the base for a cost driver in the analysis.

QUESTION 12
The controller for Camden’s Bike Shop has gathered the following cost and activity level information:
Average total cost per unit$225.00Production level used to calculate average cost1,000Total fixed costs$80,000
What is the total cost of producing 1,000 racing bicycles?
What is the variable cost of producing each racing bicycle?
Suppose the controller uses the average cost to predict total costs. What total cost would the controller calculate for 2,500 racing bicycles?
If the controller uses the cost equation to predict total costs, what total cost would the controller calculate for 2,500 racing bicycles?
Is there a difference between the forecasted total cost using average cost versus the cost equation? If there is a difference, what creates the difference? If there is no difference, when would there be a difference?

QUESTION 13
