y = $1900 + $0.35X
                       
Step 1
High cost $5,400
Low cost $(4,000)
Change in cost $1,400
High activity       10,000
Low activity       (6,000)
Change in activity        4,000
Change in cost $1,400
Divide byDivide by
Change in activity        4,000
Variable cost per unit $0.35

Step 2
High cost $5,400
Low cost $(4,000)
Change in cost $1,400
High activity       10,000
Low activity       (6,000)
Change in activity        4,000
Change in cost $1,400
Divide byDivide by
Change in activity        4,000
Variable cost per unit $0.35
Now, using high point data:
Total variable cost at high point:
High activity 10,000
Variable cost per unit $0.35
Total variable cost at high point $3,500
Total cost at high point $5,400
Less total variable cost at high point $(3,500)
Fixed cost $1,900
