Read the passage carefully and answer the question based on the passage:

Akriti Manufacturing Company produces flower vases. The cost of production for 100 vase includes rent of rs 10,000, salary for permanent staff of rs 10,000, cost of Labour is 12,000 and Raw material of rs 18,000. Due to increased demand of vases the company plans to increase production to 200 vases. The variable cost per vase remains Rs 300, and the fixed cost does not change.

What is the fixed cost for producing 200 vases?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

Option 2: 20,000 -> Fixed costs are expenses that remain constant regardless of the quantity produced. Whether the company produces 200 vases, 100 vases, or 500 vases, the fixed cost stays the same. These typically include rent, salaries, insurance, and equipment costs that don't vary with production volume. In this case, the fixed cost is 20,000, which applies to any production level including 200 vases. -> correct
