Answer 1

Answer:

C). Government Action.

Explanation:

Cost of Production is depicted as the sum total of all the expenditure incurred on producing a specific quantity of a good or providing a particular service. It primarily involves the fixed, as well as, variable cost.

The fixed costs include the 'available machinery and technologies' (depreciation), rent, etc. while the variable costs include the cost of labor(wages), cost of raw materials(inputs), along with the cost of supplies that are consumed during the production like fuel, cleaning, etc. Thus, they would include all the given costs except for the government action as the taxes are already paid by the company to the government already. Thus, option C is the correct answer.
