What it is: Cost per unit is a measure of a company's cost to build or create one unit of product. For example, let's assume it costs Company XYZ $10,000 to purchase 5,000 widgets that it will resell in its retail outlets. Company XYZ's cost per unit is: $10,000 / 5,000 = $2 per unit.
There is also a variable cost component related to running the machines on the factory floor. The fixed component in this example is $3,000 per month. The variable cost component is $10 per unit of output. Hence, at a production level of 500 units, the total electric cost is $8,000 [$3,000 + ($10 x 500)].ence, when 100 units are manufactured, the fixed cost per unit is $500 ($50,000 100). When 500 units are manufactured, the fixed cost per unit is $100 ($50,000 500). Relevant Range: The relevant range is the range of activity (e.g., production or sales) over which these relationships are valid.
