The variable costs are costs that change with the change in the level of activity that is, they vary in total in direct proportion to changes in the activity level. Examples of variable costs are Direct materials, direct labor costs and variable manufacturing overhead costs

However, the per-unit basis of variable costs does not change with changes in the activity level.

The fixed costs are costs that do not change irrespective of changes in activity level within the relevant range while the mixed costs are costs that have both a fixed and variable element in them
