What happens when 'fixed cost' decreases?
Cost can be either fixed cost or variable cost. Fixed costs are the costs that are fixed in nature and do not vary with the change in scale of production. Example of fixed costs are: factory rent. Variable costs vary with the change in scale of production. Example: Raw material cost Net Margin= Sales- Fixed cost- Variable cost Decrease in fixed costs lead to increase in margin of an organization; keeping all other things constant. Sometimes, benefit of decrease in fixed cost may be transferred to the consumer in the form of lower price. Lower price results in higher sales volume with lower sales margin per unit.
What is the Definition of semi-fixed costs?
A semi-fixed cost is fixed over a given, small range of activity, and above that level of activity, the cost suddenly jumps. It stays fixed again for a while at the higher range of activity, and when the activity moves out of that range, it jumps again. A semi-fixed cost moves upward in a step fashion, staying at a certain level over a small range and then moving to the next level quickly. All fixed costs behave this way, and a wholly fixed cost is also fixed only as long as activity remains within the relevant range. However, a semi-fixed cost is fixed over a smaller range than the relevant range of a wholly fixed cost. An example of a semi-fixed cost is the nursing staff in a hospital. If the hospital needs one nurse for every 25 patients, then each time the patient load increases by 25 patients, one additional nurse will be hired and total nursing salaries will jump by the additional nurse's salary. That is in contrast to administrative staff salaries at the same hospital, which might remain fixed until the patient load increases by 250 patients, at which point an additional admitting clerk would be needed. The administrative staff salaries are wholly fixed costs (over the relevant range), whereas the nursing staff salaries are semi-fixed costs.
