Question

Zack Shields leases a manufacturing facility that produces computer monitors. Zack tries to keep production high, because his lease payments are $10,500 a month, regardless of whether he produces one computer monitor a month or 10,000. Zach's lease payment is a ________ cost.

Answer 1

Answer: Fixed payment

Explanation: Usually loans come with a variable interest rates, that change over time or fixed rates. When it’s a fixed rate, you will have to pay the same amount (not changing) interest rate over the period of the loan. Interest rates Are usually affected by changes constantly because the economy grows and contracts. But with a fixed rate, your loan is not affected by those changes. This is same as the example no matter how many computers monitors he produces in a month his lease doesn’t increase because it is fixed.
