What effect would a high fuel price have on the cost index (CI)?

Would the rate of climb of a typical modern jet aircraft be greater at V2 or V2 + 15 knots?
V2 + 15 Knots
A runway needs a displaced threshold due to an obstacle in the approach funnel. The obstacle is 300m from the displaced threshold. How high is the obstacle?
4.8m
Because you need to take away 60m and then find 2% of the remaining distance.
How wide (both sides) is the straight JAR-OPS take off fan at a distance of 300m from the end of the TODA? The initial half width (1/2E0) is 90m.
255m
(90 + (0.125 x 300) = 127.5 x 2 = 255m
