17. High-Low Method Metro Transit Company has the following maintenance costs and mileage data for its fleet of buses over a 4-month period: Illustration 5-7 April $63,000 50,000 January 30,000 20,000 Difference $33,000 30,000 $33,000  30,000 = $1.10 variable costs per mile Month January February Miles Driven 20,000 40,000 Total Cost $30,000 $48,000 Month March April Miles Driven 35,000 50,000 Total Cost $49,000 $63,000

18. High-Low Method Illustration 5-8 Metro Transit Company would compute the fixed portion as: Maintenance costs are $8,000 per month fixed plus $1.10 per mile. For example at 45,000 miles, estimated maintenance costs would be $49,500 = variable (45,000 x $1.10), and $8,000 fixed. Total Cost Less: Variable costs (50,000 x $1.10) (20,000 x $1.10) Total fixed costs High $63,000 55,000 $ 8,000 Low $30,000 22,000 $ 8,000 Activity Level
