The marginal cost is:
Select one:
O a. Is the incremental cost of an activity, such as producing a unit of goods or services
O b. Is the cost that causes change in total cost for a cost object
O c Is the span of activity levels for which the cost behaviour patterns hold
O d. Is the input or activity that causes change in total cost for a cost object
Q) Use the high-low method to determine the estimating cost function with machine-hours as the cost driver.
I. If the coefficient of correlation for machine hours is higher than the coefficient of correlation for direct labor hours, then, it is more reasonable to use the direct labor hours as a basis for computing (estimating) total cost (Y=a + bx).
II. Relevant range assumptions: relevant range refers to the range of activity within which the identified cost behavior patterns are valid. Any level of activity beyond this range may show different cost behavior.
A. Both Statements are True
B. Both Statements are False
C. Statement A is true, Statement B is False
D. Statement B is true, Statement A is False
