Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Months           Machine Hours    Maintenance Costs

January                 30,000                  $67,500

February               40,000                    74,500

March                    37,500                   65,900

April                      39,000                    68,750

May                      42,300                   74,000

June                     35,000                   64,500

High-low:

May                       42,300                  $74,000 for highest

January                30,000                    67,500 for lowest

Difference            12,300                    $6,500

Variable costs = $0.53 ($6,500/12,300)

Using May, the total variable cost = 42,300 * $0.53 = $22,419

Fixed cost = $51,581 ($74,000 - $22,419)

or approximately $51,600
