There are a number of costs that vary or change, but if the variation is not due to volume changes, it is not considered to be a variable cost.

When total variable cost may increase variable cost per unit is constant or no?

Total variable cost can increase while the variable cost per unit remains constant if the total quantity of output produced increases. In this scenario, the variable cost per unit does not change, but since more units are being produced, the overall total variable cost rises. Conversely, if the output level stays the same, an increase in total variable cost would imply an increase in the variable cost per unit.


Would you consider airline fuel cost as a fixed or variable cost?

With respect to the number of passengers on an aircraft, fuel cost should be mixed, i.e. a combination of fixed costs and variable costs. However, since the number of passengers on an aircraft have little effect on its overall weight, the variable portion would be small, and the cost will be mostly fixed. With respect to the number of miles flown, aircraft fuel cost would be variable.


How can fixed cost become variable cost?

fixed cost can become the variable coat because when the commodity meets so many competitors in the market it would become the variable cos in other for consumers to purchase it.


Marginal versus variable costing?

Variable cost refers to the TOTAL variable cost of all units, whereas marginal cost is the variable cost of the last unit only. Variable cost is the sum of all the individual marginal costs. The derivative of the Variable Cost is the Marginal Cost. The integral of the Marginal cost is the Variable Cost.

Variable cost: The cost change with the change in activity is called variable cost. So as much fuel used cost increased accordingly so it is variable cost.
