Please answer both.

High-Low Method for a Service Company

Boston Railroad decided to use the high-low method and operating data from the past six months to estimate the fixed and variable components of transportation costs. The activity base used by Boston Railroad is a measure of railroad operating activity, termed "gross-ton miles," which is the total number of tons multiplied by the miles moved.

Transportation Costs Gross-Ton Miles
January $1,008,400 298,000
February 1,124,300 333,000
March 794,600 216,000
April 1,078,000 323,000
May 904,100 260,000
June 1,159,100 351,000

Determine the variable cost per gross-ton mile and the total fixed cost.

Variable cost (Round to two decimal places.) $ per gross-ton mile
Total fixed cost $
