ACME Coal paid $5,000 to lease a railcar from the Reading Railroad. Under the terms of the lease, $1,000 of this payment is refundable if the railcar is returned within two days of sign- ing the lease. 1. Upon signing the lease and paying $5,000, how large are ACME's fixed costs? Its sunk costs? 2. One day after signing the lease, ACME realizes that it has no use for the railcar. A farmer has a bumper crop of corn and has offered to sublease the railcar from ACME at a price of $4,500. Should ACME accept the farmer's offer?
