Explain variable cost as opposed to fixed cost?
A fixed cost is one that will not change in total due to changes in production volume. An example would be factory rent. No matter how many widgets are produced in that factory, total rent is going to be the same. However, this means that the "per unit" cost changes based on how many widgets are produced. Variable costs, on the other hand, have a fixed per unit price, but total costs change in response to a change in volume. For example, let's say each widget requires $10 of direct labor to produce. Total variable costs is going to change based on how many widgets are produced.
