Here is the answer.
Direct materials. The most purely variable cost of all, these are the raw materials that go into a product.
Piece rate labor. This is the amount paid to workers for every unit completed (note: direct labor is frequently not a variable cost, since a minimum number of people are needed to staff the production area; this makes it a fixed cost).
Production supplies. Things like machinery oil are consumed based on the amount of machinery usage, so these costs vary with production volume.
Billable staff wages. If a company bills out the time of its employees, and those employees are only paid if they work billable hours, then this is a variable cost. However, if they are paid salaries (where they are paid no matter how many hours they work), then this is a fixed cost.
Commissions. Salespeople are paid a commission only if they sell products or services, so this is clearly a variable cost.
Hope it helped.
