St Mark's Hospital contains 640 beds The occupancy rate varies between 60% and 90% per month, but the average occupancy rate is generally 80%. In other words, on average 80% of the hospital's beds are occupied by patients At this level of occupancy, the hospital's operating costs are $51 per occupied bed per day, assuming a 30-day month This $51 figure contains both variable and fixed cost elements This average cost figure drops to $48 when the occupancy rate is 90% Use 30 day months for all your calculations During June, the hospital's occupancy rate was only 60% and a total of $762,560 in operating costs was incurred during the month Required: 1-a. Using the high-low method, estimate the variable cost per occupied bed on a daily basis (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.) Vanable cost 11610 per bed-day 3 decimal places required 1-b. Using the high-low method, estimate the total fixed operating costs per month (Do not round intermediate calculations, Round your final answer to two decimal places.) Total towed operating costs per month 2. Assume an occupancy rate of 70% per month What amount of total operating cost would you expect the hospital to incur? (Do not round Intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to two decimal places.) Required: 1-a. Using the high-low method, estimate the variable cost per occupied bed on a daily basis (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.) Variable cost 11.610 per bed-day X 3 decimal places required. 1-b. Using the high-low method, estimate the total fixed operating costs per month (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to two decimal places.) Total fixed operating costs per month 2. Assume an occupancy rate of 70% per month what amount of total operating cost would you expect the hospital. to incur?
