Graphically, the situation can be represented as follows:

Figure 4-3 Evolution of the unit cost (variable costing)

Source: The author

Using variable costing, the mean unit cost is therefore 325F

The standard deviation is

SD=26.74F

Given all these information that can be summarised in the following table, we can now start with the analysis part of this chapter.
