Capital (K) Q= 100 Labor (L) The firm's optimization problem is to minimize total cost for a given level of output. In the diagram above, why is that achieved at point E rather than at point F? Select one: O a. Although E uses more labor than F, output is higher to compensate for increased costs. O b. Total costs are the same at Fand E, but the firm prefers the combination of inputs at E. O c. F uses more capital than E, and capital tends to be more expensive than labor. O d. Total costs at E are lower than at F because E is on a lower isocost line.
13. Which diagram correctly shows the relationship between marginal cost and average cost? £ S marginal cost average cost output output marginal cost average cost 15 £ D B average cost marginal cost output marginal cost average cost output

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.
As output rises, which of the following always increases? variable cost only marginal cost only total cost and variable cost total cost only O fixed cost only
Ike's Bikes is a major manufacturer of bicycles. Currently, the company produces bikes using only one factory. However, it is considering expanding production to two or even three factories. The following table shows the company's short-run average total cost (SRATC) each month for various levels of production if it uses one, two, or three factories. (Note: Q equals the total quantity of bikes produced by all factories.) Number of Factories Q = 100 1 74°F Clear 2 3 440 620 800 Q = 200 280 380 480 Average Total Cost (Dollars per bike) Q = 300 Q = 400 240 320 240 320 240 240 Q = 500 480 380 280 Q = 600 800 620 440 Suppose Ike's Bikes is currently producing 100 bikes per month in its only factory. Its short-run average total cost is $440 per bike. Suppose Ike's Bikes is expecting to produce 100 bikes per month for several years. In this case, in the long run, it would choose to produce bikes using one factory On the following graph, plot the three SRATC curves for Ike's Bikes from the…

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: $…
