Question 1. Which method of analyzing mixed cost can be used to estimate an equation for the mixed cost?
Question 2. The high-low method is used with which types of costs.
Question 3. Eddy Corporation has provided the following production and total cost data for two levels of monthly production volume. The company produces a single product.
Production volume 6,000 units 7,000 units
Direct materials $582,600 $679,700
Direct labor $136,200 $158,900
Manufacturing overhead $691,800 $714,700
The best estimate of the total variable manufacturing cost per unit is:
Question 4. Given the cost formula Y = $12,500 + $5.00X, total cost for an activity level of 4,000 units would be.

Number of patient-visits 4,500 5,750
General overhead $269,750 $289,125
The best estimate of the variable general overhead cost per patient-visit is closest to
Question 6. Use the following to answer questions below:
