b.Not fire the employees keeping them generates a profit of $1100 per employee
c.Not fire the employees since keeping them generates a profit of $1085 per employee

The correct option is C,not fire the employees since keeping them generates a profit of $1085 per employee
Explanation:
The cost of paying all 100 employees is $300,000 i.e ($3000*100)
Since each employee contributes $4,100 to the company bottom-line,all of them would contribute $410,000 as a whole.
The rent of office of $1,500 is also a cost to consider as shutting down would mean rent is no longer paid
Profit from employees=$410,000-$300,000-$1,500=$108,500
Profit per employee=$108500 /100=$1085
The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question
A firm wishes to shut down an office and fire 100 employees. The company will save $3000 per month per employee. It is estimated that each employee contributes $4,100 to the company. The firm rents office space for this group of employees at $1500. What should the company do
a. Fire the employees and save $1500 on rent
b. Not fire the employees keeping them generates a profit of $1100 per employee
c. Not fire the employees since keeping them generates a profit of $1085 per employee
d. None of the above
Answer:
Not fire the employees since keeping them generates a profit of $1085
Explanation:
The amount of money contributed by each employee in the company is $4,100
The amount of expenses made is $3,000
Fixed costs can be calculated by dividing the amount of money used in purchasing the office space by the total number of employees
= 1500/100
= $15
Therefore, the earnings made from each employee is
= $4,100-$3,000-$15
= $1085
Hence since the company is making a profit of $1085 per employee then there is no need to fire them.
