Answer 1

The term "variable costs" refers to All costs that do not change in total for a given period of time and relevant range but become progressively smaller on a per unit basis as volume increases.

Explanation:

Variable costs are those that vary directly with the degree of production or output. This indicates that as more units are produced, total variable costs rise correspondingly, and as fewer units are produced, total variable costs fall. Variable costs include raw materials, direct labour costs, and other expenses that change according to output volume.
