Variable costs: a. change in direct relationship to the quantity of output produced. b. are constant in the short-run regardless of the quantity of output produced. c. reflect the change in a variable when one more unit of output is produced. d. are subtracted from fixed costs to compute the contribution margin. e. form the basis that is used to determine the degree of operating leverage employed by a firm. FIXED COSTS b 7. Fixed costs: a. change as the quantity of output produced changes. b. are constant over the short-run regardless of the quantity of output produced. c. reflect the change in a variable when one more unit of output is produced. d. are subtracted from sales to compute the contribution margin. e. can be ignored in scenario analysis sin
