Question

Semi-fixed Cost will be

A. zero if output were zero and would change
erratically as output increased
B. more than zero if no products were made and
would then increase in direct proportion to output
C. zero when output is zero and would increase
in direct proportion to output
D. a fixed amount when output was zero and would
not increase in direct proportion to output​

Answer 1

B. more than zero if no products were made and would then increase in direct proportion to output

Step-by-step explanation:

Semi-fixed Cost will be "more than zero if no products were made and would then increase in direct proportion to output."

This is because a semi-fixed cost also known as semi-variable cost or mixed cost is a combination of both a fixed factor and a variable factor.

Such that if production was zero some costs would still be incurred. However, as output rises, the variable part of the costs will rise in direct proportion to output.
