hi, I am having a problem distinguishing if these verbs provide examples of a normal use of the indicative mood or subjunctive mood:

1 We were hoping you could come and have lunch with us.

2 Be that as it may, our expenditure is bound to increase.

3 We suggest that this applicant apply next year.

4 By the time we stopped, we had driven six hundred miles.

5 If I were feeling over-tired, I wouldn’t go on.

i think the last one is subjunctive but I'm not quite sure

thanks for any help

Subjunctive verb-forms in these examples are: be, apply, were.

Others are indicative.
