Where L = quantity of labor; TP = total product of labor, AP = average product of labor; MP = marginal product of labor; TFC = total fixed cost; TVC = total variable cost; TC = total cost; AFC = average fixed cost; AVC = average variable cost; AC = average cost and MC = marginal cost.

  1. Fill in all the missing values in the table. You may use a spreadsheet program to compute the values BUT you must provide a step-by-step explanation of how you arrived at the answers.
  2. Construct the marginal cost, average cost and average variable cost curves. You may use a computer- generated diagram.
