In 2013, managers at Sunrise Elder Care spent $50,000 on a market analysis of the demand for nursing home care for patients with dementia. In 2014, managers used the study findings in their analysis of whether to expand their provision of specialist nursing home care for patients with dementia or simply keep the existing dementia unit. The $50,000 spent on the market analysis: Select one: a. Represent a sunk cost and are thus not relevant for this decision. b. Will need to be taken into account for this decision as they are non-differential. c. Are a fixed cost and can thus, by definition, not be a differential cost. d. Will need to be taken into account for this decision as they resulted in an increase of the full costs of providing care to patients with dementia.
