Solution

The correct statement in relation to fixed costs per unit of output is: They decline as the level of output increases.

Here's why: Fixed costs are costs that do not change with the level of output. Examples include rent, salaries, and insurance. When you spread these fixed costs over more units of output, the cost per unit decreases.

For example, if your fixed costs are 1000andyouproduce10units,yourfixedcostperunitis1000 and you produce 10 units, your fixed cost per unit is 100 (1000/10). But if you produce 20 units, your fixed cost per unit drops to $50 (1000/20). So, as the level of output increases, the fixed cost per unit declines.
