In the world of business, fixed costs are often referred to as overhead costs. This is the money the business needs to spend simply to keep operating. More accurately, we can say that fixed costs are the costs that do not increase or decrease as the business produces more or fewer goods and services.  Fixed costs for a business are similar to (but not exactly the same as) those for a personal budget. A business's fixed costs include rent, utilities, building leases, equipment, machinery, insurance premiums, and labor not involved in the production of the goods and services.  For example, let's say that we own a basketball factory. Our monthly fixed costs include: building lease = $4,000, insurance premiums = $1,500, loan payments = $3,000, and equipment = $2,500. In addition, we pay $7,000 per month for workers that don't directly affect the production of our basketballs — janitors, security guards and so on. Adding these up, we get a value for our fixed costs of $18,000. In business, variable costs are a little different than they are for personal budgets. A business's variable costs are the expenses that are directly affected by the amount of goods or services produced. In other words, the more a business creates (in terms of products produced, services rendered, and so on), the greater its variable costs will be.  Variable costs for a business include things like raw materials, shipping expenses, labor that is involved in the production process, and so on. In addition, utilities can be a variable expense if they fluctuate with the output of your business. For example, since a robotic car factory uses a large amount of electricity and since the amount of electricity needed will increase as more cars are produced, utilities can be classified as a variable cost. In our basketball factory example, let's say that our variable costs include: rubber = $1,000, shipping = $2,000, factory worker wages = $10,000. In addition, our factory uses a large amount of natural gas for the rubber vulcanization process and this cost increases as production ramps up — this month's utilities bill was $3,000. Adding up our expenses, we get total variable costs of $16,000. As with personal budgets, the formula for calculating a business's total costs is quite simple: Fixed Costs + Variable Costs = Total Cost. In our example, since our fixed costs are $18,000 and our variable costs are $16,000, our total monthly cost for the factory is $34,000. Most businesses' fixed and variable costs can be found on their financial documents. Specifically, the income statement should contain all of the variable costs tied to the production of the business's goods and services in addition to crucial fixed costs like rent, utilities, and so on. The income statement is a standard financial document — nearly all businesses with some sort of accounting operation should have one. In addition, you may want to consult another document called a balance sheet to determine how much money the business needs to pay back in the future. The balance sheet contains (in addition to other important figures) a business's liabilities — the money it owes to others. This can help you determine your business's financial health: if you're just barely making enough money to meet your total cost and you have major liabilities, your business may be in an unfavorable position.

Problem: Article: Whether she's frustrated, embarrassed or angry, let your daughter know her feelings matter too.  Don't roll your eyes or tell her she's overreacting. For example, respond by saying, “I hear what you're saying. It sounds like you're really angry with your friends. That must be difficult.” If you're in a heated discussion or just having a serious conversation, always give her the opportunity to speak. Don't just brush off what she says. Make eye contact, nod while she's speaking and really listen. Repeat back what your teen said so that she knows you have listened to and acknowledged her feelings. One of the best ways to validate your daughter's feelings is to show your support with a hug. Sometimes your teen doesn't want to talk. Sometimes she's simply needs your affection and attention.   If your daughter is really upset you may want to say, “It sounds like you're going through a tough time. Can I give you a hug?” A hug can be a good resolution to an argument as well. Take a few minutes to cool off, then approach your daughter and summarize what her side of the argument was. Ask her for a hug afterwards to show that you love and support her. You may think she's too young to experience such issues, but if your teen mentions she's depressed or suicidal, acknowledge what she's saying and act on it.    One in five teenagers are diagnosed with mental health issues, so it's important to acknowledge her feelings.  Although occasional moodiness or bouts of sadness is fairly normal for teenagers, take note if she's withdrawing from friends and family or suddenly has lost interest in all of her favorite activities.  Be supportive and let her know she's loved and that this issue is worth your time and attention. Show that you've acknowledged her feelings by scheduling an appointment with a mental health professional. Go with her to the appointment, take notes and ask questions about treatment plans.
Summary:
Let your daughter know her feelings matter. Respond with a hug. Take mental health issues seriously.
