Examples of Variable Costs

1. Merchandising companies – cost of goods sold.


2. Manufacturing companies – direct materials,
direct labor, and variable overhead.
3. Merchandising and manufacturing companies –
commissions, shipping costs, and clerical costs
such as invoicing.
4. Service companies – supplies, travel, and

Is Labor a Variable or a Fixed Cost?

The behavior of wage and salary costs can


differ across countries, depending on labor
regulations, labor contracts, and custom.

In France, Germany, China, and Japan management has


little flexibility in adjusting the size of the labor force.
Labor costs are more fixed in nature.

In the United States and the United Kingdom management


has greater latitude. Labor costs are more variable in nature.

If your fixed monthly utility charge is $40, your


variable cost is $0.03 per kilowatt hour, and your
monthly activity level is 2,000 kilowatt hours,
what is the amount of your utility bill?

3. Least-Squares Regression Method

A method used to analyze mixed costs if a


scattergraph plot reveals an approximately linear
relationship between the X and Y variables.

This method uses all of the


data points to estimate
the fixed and variable
cost components of a
mixed cost.
The goal of this method is
to fit a straight line to the
data that minimizes the
sum of the squared errors.
