Answer:

Fixed costs are those costs that do not vary with the level of production. While, variable cost are those costs that change with the level of production or per unit consumption.

(a) Repairs to a leaking roof- Fixed cost as it has nothing to do with the level of production.

(b) Cotton- Variable cost as it depends on the number of units produced.

(c) Food for the miller's cafeteria- Variable as it depends on production. The more you produce the more workers you need and thus more is the food requirement.

(d) Night security guard-  Fixed cost as it does not change with the number of units produced by the textile mill.

(e) Electricity- Variable cost as it depends on the units of electricity consumed. The more you produce the more electricity will be consumed.

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

it does not measure quality-of-life factors ; it does not account for distribution of wealth ; it fails to measure non monetary (home production) activities

Explanation:

Real GDP is the total value of goods & services produced in an economy, during a period of time. But it is not correct measure of welfare level.

  • It does not measure non monetary production, like hobby production eg kitchen gardening, self made paintings, music. But, they increase welfare
  • It does not take into consideration the qualitative factors affecting welfare like pollution, crime & literacy. Externalities cause extra benefit or harm to welfare level, but are excluded from GDP.
  • Inequitable distribution of  per capita (average) GDP increases rich poor standard of living divide. So, the distribution effect ignored make GDP an inapt measure of average welfare level.

Real GDP adjusts the value of goods & services for price change (Inflation), it is a correct measure of increase in real flow of goods & services. GDP & health positive correlation is a favouring point for GDP as a measure of welfare. So, these options are incorrect.
