Answer to Question 1

Imputed rental income is what an owner-occupied home could be rented for if not owner-occupied. Imputed rental income is not taxed under the current tax code. On equity grounds, the non-taxation of imputed rental income is wrong because it does not treat the owners of rental housing and the owners of owner-occupied houses equally, since those who rent houses have to pay taxes on their rental income.

Answer to Question 2

In the short run fixed costs are sunk; in the long run, fixed costs are avoidable.
