The Gourmand Cooking School runs short cooking courses at its small campus. Management has identified two cost drivers it uses in
its budgeting and performance reports-the number of courses and the total number of students. For example, the school might run
two courses in a month and have a total of 62 students enrolled in those two courses. Data concerning the company's cost formulas

For example, administrative expenses should be $3,700 per month plus $43 per course plus $7 per student. The company's sales
should average $890 per student.
