LEARNING OBJECTIVE Explain variable, fixed, and mixed costs and the relevant range. 1 LO 1 Cost Behavior Analysis is the study of how specific costs respond to changes in the level of business activity. Activity levels may be expressed in terms of: Sales dollars (in a retail company) Miles driven (in a trucking company) Room occupancy (in a hotel) Dance classes taught (by a dance studio) Many companies use more than one measurement base. Cost Behavior Analysis LO 1 Cost Behavior Analysis is the study of how specific costs respond to changes in the level of business activity. Changes in the level or volume of activity should be correlated with changes in costs. Activity level selected is called activity or volume index. Activity index: Identifies the activity that causes changes in the behavior of costs. Allows costs to be classified as variable, fixed, or mixed. Cost Behavior Analysis LO 1 Costs that vary in total directly and proportionately with changes in the activity level. Example: If the activity level increases 10 percent, total variable costs increase 10 percent. Example: If the activity level decreases by 25 percent, total variable costs decrease by 25 percent. Variable costs remain the same per unit at every level of activity. Variable .
