Answer
Both (A) and (B)
Reason — Fixed costs remain unchanged in total amount irrespective of the volume of output — at all levels of output and even at zero level of output, the firm continues to incur fixed costs like rent, insurance, salaries of permanent staff and depreciation of plant. This is what makes them "fixed" — they exist as long as the business exists, regardless of whether anything is being produced.
