Because product costs are initially assigned to inventories, they are also known as __________________
An activity base is a measure of whatever causes the incurrence of a variable cost. An activity base is sometimes referred to as a______________________
_________________________________represent organizational investments with a multiyear planning horizon that can’t be significantly reduced even for short periods of time without making fundamental changes.
_________________________________(often referred to as managed fixed costs) usually arise from annual decisions by management to spend on certain fixed cost items.
Because mixed costs are represented by a straight line, the following equation for a straight line can be used to express the relationship between a mixed cost and the level of activity:____________________
To analyze mixed cost with the high-low method, begin by identifying the period with the lowest level of activity and the period with the highest level of activity. The formula to analyze variable cost becomes:
______________________________________________
The_______________________________________, unlike the high-low method, uses all of the data to separate a mixed cost into its fixed and variable components.
The_______________________________________ is the amount remaining from sales revenue after variable expenses have been deducted.
A ________________________ is anything for which cost data are desired – including products, customers, jobs, and organizational subunits.
A difference in costs between any two alternatives is known as a ______________________________
A difference in revenues between any two alternatives is known as ______________________________
___________________________________is the potential benefit that is given up when one alternative is selected over another.
A ________________________is a cost that has already been incurred and that cannot be changed by any decision made now or in the future.
