Variable cost per unit= $4

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

We have determined that the highest and lowest bills were $5,600 and $3,200 for January and September. We produced 1,200 and 600 units in these months.

To calculate the variable cost per unit, we need to use the high-low method. We will use the following formula:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (5,600 - 3,200) / (1,200 - 600)

Variable cost per unit= $4
