Millerstown, on the Nolin River, was the first community to be formally incorporated in 1826; Falls of Rough grew up around the Green Sawmill, which first operated in 1823; and Grayson Springs, a popular summer resort, opened in 1830 and peaked in prosperity about 1900.
Example 1. Assume a business produces clothing. A variable cost of this product would be the direct material, i.e., cloth, and the direct labor. If it takes one laborer 6 yards of cloth and 8 hours to make a shirt, then the cost of labor and cloth increases if two shirts are produced.
In such a case, under variable costing, sales will be zero but all fixed costs will be shown as an expense in the same accounting period. The result is that losses will be reported during out of season periods and large profits will be reported in the periods when the goods are sold. ADVERTISEMENTS:
