    Thanks, but where does the £6 come from?

    Variable cost per unit Emily.

    As both production levels shown are under the 30,000, you can use the high low method to find the vcpu.

    23000-19000=4900
    324400-295000=29400

    Divide 29400 by 4900 to give you 6

    The fixed overheads for 21000 should be 169000. The 12000 increase only happens after more than 30000 are produced?

    I have fixed overheads at £181,000 as they are for 19000 units and 23000 units, I only added the £12,000 increase to the 36000 units.. could be wrong though..
