What will be the fixed costs for Bella Capri per week

The answer is $1000.

Explanation:

We can define fixed cost as the costs that does not increase or decrease as with the change in the service given or the goods produce.

According to this, we can say that the $16 price per meal and therefore the $4 ingredients are not included in the fixed cost. The light, heat and fuel are also dependent on the usage, so they do vary with the service given.

The other costs given in the question are eligible to be counted as fixed costs because they are not dependent on the number of costumers or the amount of food served.

So the fixed costs for Bella Capri per week is $250 + $150 + $600 = $1000.
