CB,

For your fixed cost example to be true, you must assume that unit volume at $50 per chip has doubled from that at $70 per chip. Otherwise, you have to take a weighted average.

Re: "Albert's math is fine. The difference between fixed cost and variable cost is that you incur the same fixed cost regardless of quantity produced. "

What ?

Albert assumed the fixed cost of TWO CPUS was the same as ONE CPU - $50 !!!
