Based on the example, fixed expenses do not change with volume. Contrary, variable expenses change with volume. With respect to the case study the same principles apply. The only difference is that our variables expenses will change based on sales volume instead of machine hours.

Example:

Sales Volume 2,850

Feed cost per animal 3.23

Total feed cost = 2,850*3.23=9,206

Advertisement is a fixed expense at the 2,850 volume level (column F). However, the expense is considered a mixed cost (fixed and variable) with the second budget (column H).

For further clarification my suggestion is to read the instructions tab, row 35.
