The Variable Cost Tracker is an interactive tool designed to help businesses, freelancers, and individuals monitor and manage their variable costs effectively. Variable costs are expenses that fluctuate based on production levels, sales volume, or other operational factors. This tool allows users to input data for various cost categories (e.g., materials, labor, utilities) and calculates total variable costs, average cost per unit, and trends over time.

This tool is ideal for small business owners, project managers, accountants, and students learning about cost management who want to optimize their budgets and improve financial planning.
