33
![Page 34: cost account.ppt](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/55cf9140550346f57b8bfae4/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Variable cost

• E.g. cost of food served in a restaurant
34
![Page 35: cost account.ppt](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/55cf9140550346f57b8bfae4/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

35
![Page 36: cost account.ppt](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/55cf9140550346f57b8bfae4/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Semi-variable cost
• It processes characteristics of both fixed and variable cost
• It increases or decreases with activity level but not in direct proportion
36
