Two potential problems that should be avoided in relevant cost analysis are: 1. 2. Do not assume all variable costs are relevant and all fixed costs are irrelevant. Do not use unit-cost data directly. It can mislead decision makers because a. it may include irrelevant costs‚ and b. comparisons of unit costs computed at different output levels lead to erroneous conclusions 11-6 No. Some variable costs may not differ among the alternatives under consideration and‚ hence‚ will be irrelevant.

control is of utmost importance to managers in order to decisions. In this study‚ we took a look at the traditional cost behavior models such as variable cost (which changes in line with activity)‚ fixed cost (which is not proportionate with the level of activity)‚ and semi- variable cost which is also known as mixed cost (which have both features of the variable and fixed cost). Furthermore‚ cost estimation techniques were also looked at and the advantages and disadvantages of each method outlined. We
