Answer:
B)The cost of energy for a company can be both a fixed cost and a variable cost.
Explanation:
Energy is a fixed cost because it is an utility that companies have to pay regardless of the level of production; they need energy to function.
Energy is a variable cost because energy is an input to production, and the amount of energy used (and hence its cost) can vary a lot depending on how much output is produced. In the question, ethanol is referenced, which is also a type of variable cost, because it is an energy source that depends on another input (corn), and its used as a substitue for gasoline.
It seems that you have missed the given options for this question, but anyway here is the correct answer.

Answer:
Net Present Value = $59,632.78
Explanation:
<em>The net present value NPV) of a project is the present value of cash inflow less the present value of cash outflow of the project.
</em>
<em>NPV = PV of cash inflow - PV of cash outflow
</em>
Present value of cash inflow:
65,000 × (1.09375)^(-1) + 98000
×(1.09375)^(-2)+ 126,000
×(1.09375)^(-3)+ 132,000 × (1.09375)^(-4)= 326882.7792
PV of annual maintenance cost :
=1,500 × (1- 1.09375^(-4))/0.09375
=4819.84773
NPV = 26882.7792 - 4819.84773
- (255,000+12250)
= 59,632.78
