Answer: Option (b) is correct.

Answer:

D. fixed cost

Explanation:

The fixed cost in a business refers to those costs that are independent of the production output in the business. This means that to a large extent, these costs remain constant whether there is a decrease or increase in output and profit in the business.

In the case of Dizzy Amusement Park, the amount paid to each operator is a fixed cost accrued from the business. It is an agreed-upon price that must be paid whether the park records an increase or decrease in visitors. This kind of cost is in the same category as the rent and insurance fees accrued from the business.
