Exam IIA-CIA-Part3 topic 1 question 114 discussion

i don't understand what this question is asking based on the data?

I also do not understand the question. Can someone please explain...

The value of Output Produced decreases from $4,750,000 in the first quarter to $4,000,000 in the fourth quarter. The Percentage of Cost X relative to the Output Produced increases from 2.9% to 3.5% as the Output Produced decreases. This pattern suggests that Cost X does not vary proportionally with the Output Produced. Instead: If Cost X were a variable cost, the percentage would remain constant because it would change directly with the Output Produced. If Cost X were a fixed cost, the percentage would increase as the Output Produced decreases, which matches the observed pattern. Correct Answer: B. Cost X is a fixed cost. Explanation: Fixed costs remain constant in total, regardless of the level of output. As output decreases, fixed costs represent a larger percentage of the total output value, which aligns with the increasing percentages shown in the data.

The question is not consistent with the answers
