3. Jetboats Ltd uses the high‐low method to estimate the cost function. Jetboat operates jet boat rides on Sydney Harbour. The number of hours the engines are run in each month is provided below along with the labour costs for maintaining the jet boats for 2018.

a) What is the cost function? Total cost=Fixed cost + variable cost per unit of activity x No. of unit Step1: Highest activity level 180. Lowest activity level 50. Step2: Variable cost per unit Difference in cost level \ Difference in activity level = ($4300-$1200) / (180-50) = 23.8 per machine hour. Step3: Calculate the fixed cost by selecting one of the 2ponts used to calculate the variable cost per unit. Total cost = FC + VC*No. of unit 4300 = FC+23.8 x 180 FC = 4300-4284 =$16 Step4: Cost Function Total cost = FC+VC x No. of unit

Total cost= 16+23.8 x No. of unit

b) What is the estimate of Jetboats’s labour cost when: 130 machine hours are used? Total cost = 16+23.8 x 130 = $3110
