Step-variable costs are expenses that remain constant over a range of activity levels but change when a threshold is crossed, resembling a staircase pattern. Unlike fixed costs, step-variable costs adjust in discrete increments rather than continuously. These costs are typically associated with resources that can be adjusted in chunks, such as labor or machinery. Understanding step-variable costs is crucial for budgeting and cost management.
