variable cost

Explanation:

There are primarily two types of costs, i.e. variable costs and the fixed costs. The variable cost is the cost that varies as the level of production varies, while the fixed cost is the cost that stays constant whether the level of production changes or not. Thus, the variable cost includes indirect material, indirect labor and utilities. And, the fixed cost includes supervision and depreciation expense.

The mixed cost is a combination of the fixed cost and the variable cost

So sales per commission is depend on the number of units sold which is not fixed as it varies sales to sales

So this is an example of a variable cost

in 2001, dell computer became the world’s largest personal computer vendor, continuing to

gain market share and post profits in an industry struggling with slumping sales and billions of

dollars in losses. dell sells 90% of its pcs directly to the final customer, largely bypassing the

reseller channel that accounts for most of the world’s pc sales. this direct customer relationship

is the key to dell’s business model, and provides distinct advantages over the indirect sales

model. dell’s direct relationship with the customer allows it to tailor its offerings to customer

needs, offer add-on products and services, and use the internet to offer a variety of customer

services. in addition, dell’s pcs are built to customers’ specifications upon receipt of an order,

giving dell additional advantages over indirect pc vendors who must try to forecast demand and

ship products based on those forecasts. dell’s direct sales and build-to-order model has achieved

superior performance in the pc industry in terms of inventory turnover, reduced overhead, cash

conversion, and return on investment (kraemer, et al., 2000).
