Answer:

The correct answer is $7,500

Explanation:

So, the hiring cost would be:

Hiring quater × hiring cost

= 300 × $20

= $6,000

Firing Cost would be:

Firing cost = 100 × $5

= $500

= 200 × $5

= $1,000

Therefore, the total hiring and firing cost = $6,000 + $500 + $1,000

= $7,500

In most high-tech industries, the fixed costs of developing a product are very _____, and the costs of producing one extra unit
topjm [15]

Answer:

Fixed costs are high, variable costs are low

Explanation:

The reason is that the fixed costs are high because these fixed costs are uncontrollable and their might not be an alternative which means we have to move with higher fixed costs. And this is because most of tasks in manufacturing are handled by the machines not humans. So the cost of maintenance, depreciation, etc are fixed costs which are uncontrollable.

Furthermore, the company has very small variable costs because the company enjoys economies of scales, fast paced manufacturing machines, etc. And this is controllable by investments in another more robust machinery.
