Cost classification

Mmonicah6y ago
What is the difference between stepped fixed costs and semi variable costs?
John MoffatJohn MoffatTutor6y ago#1
Semi-variable costs are part fixed and part variable. Stepped fixed costs are costs that are fixed over a certain range but then increase and are fixed at a higher level. This is all explained, with examples, in my free lectures on cost classification and behaviour. The lectures are a complete free course for Paper MA and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
