3) Which of the following is not true about the marginal cost? Oo The marginal cost (MC) curve is U shaped. It can be calculated by dividing the change in the total cost by the change in the output. It is the additional cost incurred by a firm from changing output by a certain amount. It can be calculated by dividing the total cost by the quantity.
QUESTION 6 At a total cost of $3,100, a company can produce 4 scooters. It has fixed costs of $1,000. If it produces 5 scooters, the costs of production total $3,800. Which of the following statements is true? O Variable costs of producing 4 scooters total $3096. O The average (or per unit) cost of producing 5 scooters is $800 per scooter The total cost curve for this firm is downward sloping Fixed costs will be higher when it produces 5 scooters The marginal cost of producing the fifth scooter is $700
Costs and Profit Maximization: Work It Out 1 Suppose Margie decides to lease a photocopier and open up a black-and-white photocopying service in her dorm room for use by faculty and students. Her total cost, as a function of the number of copies she produces per month, is given in the table. Number of Photocopies Per Month Total Cost Fixed Cost Variable Cost Total Revenue Profit 0 $100 1,000 $110 2,000 $125 3,000 $145 4,000 $175 5,000 $215 6,000 $285 a. Fill in the missing numbers in the table, assuming that Margie can charge 6 cents per black-and-white copy. Margie's fixed cost is: $ Variable cost, 0 photocopies/month: $ Variable cost, 1,000 photocopies/month: $ Variable cost, 2,000 photocopies/month: $ Variable cost, 3,000 photocopies/month: $ Variable cost, 4,000 photocopies/month: $…
