The following are costs were incurred by New Balance. (Assume this list is all the costs incurred to produce and sell the shoes, even though it is not all the costs a company like New Balance would incur.) Remember: . All costs that are annually or monthly are fixed. They do not change because production or sales is more or less. All costs that are "per shoe are variable. Each time another shoe is produced, this much additional cost must be incurred. The sales commission varies with sales dollars. As sales increase the total cost will increase. For variable costs, total costs change with changes in sales or production. Determine which costs are fixed (A) and which are variable (B). (Hint: To prepare for the last question, where you will be asked to compute the total and per unit costs, write the headings for "Fixed and "Variable" on a sheet of paper. Then, as you classify each cost, enter the amount under the appropriate heading. Add the amounts in each column to obtain the total fixed and variable costs. You will have the amounts needed to answer the last question.] 1. Leather for upper part of shoe, $2.50 per shoe 2. Rubber for sole of shoe, $6 per shoe 3.
