Answer:

D) Mortgage payment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Operating expenses are the costs of keeping a company open, usually most fixed costs are operating expenses. Operating expenses do not include production costs. Some operating expenses are SG & A costs, rent, utilities, taxes, etc.

Any type of loan payment, including mortgage payments, is not an operating expense.
