1. Prepare a scattergraph using the data given above. Plot cost on the vertical axis and activity
on the horizontal axis. Is there an approximately linear relationship between shipping expense
and the number of units shipped?
Cost-Volume-Profit Relationships
Using the high-low method, estimate the cost formula for shipping expense. Draw a straight
line through the high and low data points shown in the scattergraph you prepared in require-
ment (1). Make sure your line intersects the…

- 4.20 Neter, Kutner, Nachtsheim, and Wasserman (1996) relate the speed, y, with which a particular insurance innovation is adopted to the size of the insurance firm, x, and the type of firm. The dependent variable y is measured by the number of months elapsed between the time the first firm adopted the innovation and the time the firm being considered adopted the innovation. The size of the firm, x, is measured by the total assets of the firm, and the type of the firm -a qualitative independent variable- is either a mutual compony or a stock company.
