- The increase of the activity is associated with the increase of the total variable costs and costs per the unit and is the sum of the variable cots of each individual product developed and is obtained by multiplying one unit of the variable cost to the products.
Answer:
Fixed cost in an organization does not change and is fixed while the variable cost keep changing if the production is increased.
Explanation:
Fixed cost are said to be that cost which does not change with production level for a certain limit. Let us suppose there is no change in the rent amount if we have only factory for the production of goods.
But the variable cost are those cost which increases as production increases. More will be the variable cost when the production will be more. Also for per unit basis, the variable cost remains the same.
Fixed cost are not important in decision making if there is an excess of capacity available.
For example,
Direct labor, direct material -- variable cost
Salary of supervisor, rent of factory -- fixed cost
Even though there is not much change in the variable cost, like for suppose material price increases, a company can still make a budget that is based on the past experience and predicting the market prices. Similarly, if there is a machine that uses three units of direct material for a piece if finished product, which is not going to change in the future. Thus the company can make a budget.

Explanation:
Unemployment rate is the fraction of the labour force that are unemployed but are actively looking for work
Types of unemployment include:
Frictional unemployment : it is the period of time a person is unemployed from the period he leaves his current job and the time he gets another job. The 300 unemployed people are frictionally unemployed
structural unemployment : it occurs as a result of changes in the economy. These changes can be as a result of changes in technology, polices or competition . Structural unemployment tends to be permanent. The 420 unemployed people are structurally unemployed
Voluntary unemployment : e.g. worker at a fast-food restaurant who quits work and attends college.
Cyclical unemployment : occurs as a result of fluctuations in the economy
Frictional unemployment = (total frictional unemployed people / total labour force ) x 100
(300 / 6000) x 100 = 5%
Total unemployment rate = (total frictional unemployed people + total structural unemployed individuals / total labour force ) x 100
[(300 + 420) / 6000] x 100 = 12%

Parker should first address this issue with the company and see how it can work out. It is very difficult for someone to win a lawsuit if they don't fall under any protected category. In this case, Parker's colleagues are jealous because he is simply smarter and that is the reason why they are harassing him. I guess that if he can prove with a psychiatrist report that the continuous harassment is affecting his well being, he might have a chance.
I knew a case from first hand about a very beautiful woman who had two careers and was very smart and efficient. She wasn't harassed by men, most men at the office only starred at her and wouldn't dare to talk to her. She was harassed by other women that were jealous about her beauty and the fact that she was probably the smartest person around. Besides everybody knowing that the other women were jealous, and everyone making jokes about who was most jealous, she couldn't do anything about it. She ended up quitting the job and to be honest her life got much better at another place. Sometimes an organization's culture is managed by one or two individuals, and if they feel threatened by someone else, they may act in a very childish way and the rest follows.
