Question 2

  He has asked you to draw the fixed costs of the company with costs on the vertical axis and quantity of goods sold on the horizontal axis. Without drawing a graph tell your boss what the graph will look like using words. What information did your boss give you that you didn't need in order to draw the graph?

Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

The fixed cost graph will be a horizontal line. The costs do not change with changes in output. The information that he gave me concerning how much additional units of production would cost is irrelevant since those are variable expenses and the boss was asking me to draw the fixed cost graph as a function of output.
