Fixed charges


Fixed costs or charges include such items as rent or depreciation on plant and equipment items, property taxes, and salaries of executive or management personnel (who cannot be laid off because they are needed even during slack periods). Fixed costs do not respond to changes in your business's activity. These are bills you incur regardless of revenue and are at a fixed rate. For example, your rent stays at the same rate whether you have five or 500 paying customers.
