Answer:

The total cost at low level of activity is $3200

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost is made up of both fixed and variable costs.

To calculate the fixed cost, we need to deduct the total variable cost from the total cost. We have complete information for high level of activity to calculate fixed cost.

Fixed cost = 5300- (1.4 * 2500) = 1800

Total cost = Fixed cost + variable cost

Total cost at low level = 1800 + 1.4 * 1000 = $3200
