Question

In a cost-volume-profit chart, the a.total costs line must begin at zero. b.total costs line must end at the total fixed costs value on the vertical axis. c.total fixed costs line must begin at zero. d.slope of the total costs line is dependent on the variable cost per unit.

Answer 1

Answer:

d.slope of the total costs line is dependent on the variable cost per unit.

Explanation:

The total cost line takes the shape of a slope and begins from the total of the fixed cost for the relevant range and not zero.

This is because the total cost include a fixed cost and a variable cost element.The steepness of the slope is then dependent on the variable cost per unit.
