Problem 1: In discussing the operation of her automobile, a doctor once observed that gasoline is a fixed cost because the cost per gallon is relatively stable. Insurance, on the other hand, is a variable cost because the cost per mile varies inversely with the number of miles driven. Comment on the doctor's observation

Problem 2: Manufacturers have established a cost classification called product costs. Define the term "product cost" and note where these costs appear in the financial statements. Be specific.
