A cost is fixed with respect to one cost object. The same cost may be variable with respect to a different cost object.
T or F?
True
The above statement is true
A cost is fixed with respect to one cost object and the same may be variable with respect to some other different cost object
Let us say for example rent of a factory premises is a fixed cost as fixed portion is incurred each year
In other case let us say we're a college hired a building rent of the premises is based on the number of students not on area is a variable cost as it based on number of students present hence it is variable one
Thank you
Hope you understand
Please be comment if you have any doubt in it
A cost is fixed with respect to one cost object. The same cost may be variable...
A strength of a shift in costs from a variable cost to a fixed cost may be: You have a predetermined expense each month with no variation, which may make planning easier. O You don't have to worry about budgeting when you shift to fixed costs since it is the same each month. O Sales will no longer be an important item to track, since the cost is now fixed and doesn't hinge on sales.
If a cost item is fixed for one cost object, it will be fixed for all cost objects for which it is associated. True False
For each cost item below, indicate whether it would be variable or fixed with respect to the number of units produced and sold: and then whether it would be a selling cost, an administrative cost or a manufacturing cost. If it is a manufacturing cost, indicate if it is a direct cost or an indirect cost with respect to the units of product (Ex provided #1 & #2) Variable or Selling Administrative Manufacturing (Product) Cost Cost Item Fixed Cost Cost...

Slappy Corporation leases its corporate headquarters building. This lease cost is fixed with respect to the company's sales volume. In a recent month in which the sales volume was 20,000 units, the lease cost was $482,000. To the nearest whole cent, what should be the average lease cost per unit at a sales volume of 19,200 units in a month? (Assume that this sales volume is within the relevant range.)
