The operators have not violated the antitrust laws because they are only collaborating to lobby the government
Explanation:
The antitrust law in the U.S. can be described as a group of federal and state government laws enacted to regulate the activities of business firms in order to enhance competition to the advantage of consumers.
The antitrust law aims to collusive activities that suppress trade, any merger and acquisition that would reduce competition, and prevent the the abuse of monopoly power.

Answer:
B
Explanation:
Variable costs are incurred only when a boat is manufactured such as material and direct labor. Thus variable costs will remain unchanged since it will costs the exact same amount to manufacture another identical boat. If it costs $4,000 in material and direct labor to manufacture boat A it will cost $4,000 to manufacture boat B. Fixed costs are sunk costs that will be incurred whether they manufacture 800 or 1,000 boats per year. The rent and admin costs will remain unchanged no matter how many boats are manufactured. But the fixed cost per boat will change. The total fixed costs are $80,000 (800 boats x $1,000 per boat fixed cost). If the manufacturing rate is increased to 1,000 boats per year, the per boat fixed cost will decrease to $800. Fixed costs remain at $80,000/1,000 boats = $800.
