A semi-variable cost is one containing

  • A.a variable element only above break-even
  • B.an element that varies with the selling price
  • C.a fixed element and a variable element
  • D.no fixed element at all

Answer: C

Correct answer: a fixed element and a variable element

A semi-variable or mixed cost has a standing charge plus a usage charge - a telephone line rental with call charges, a maintenance contract with additional call-outs, supervision with overtime. Before break-even analysis can be applied such costs must be split into their two parts, usually by the high-low method or by regression on past data.
