**Table Analysis for Educational Purposes:**This table provides an analysis of costs associated with different levels of production output. The columns include:- **Output:** The units of production, ranging from 0 to 5.- **TFC (Total Fixed Cost):** Constant at 25 for all levels of output.- **TVC (Total Variable Cost):** Increases with output: 0, 25, 40, 70, 110, 160.- **TC (Total Cost):** Sum of TFC and TVC: 25, 50, 65, 95, 135, 185.- **MC (Marginal Cost):** Change in TC with each additional unit of output: Not calculated for the 0th unit, 25 for the 1st unit, 15 for the 2nd unit, 30 for the 3rd unit, and 50 for the 4th unit.- **ATC (Average Total Cost):** TC divided by output, calculated from the 1st unit onward.**Problem:***What is the marginal cost of the 2nd unit of output?*- Options: - Cannot be determined. - 30 - 15 - 25**Diagrams:**There are no diagrams or graphs in the table, only numerical data.**Explanation:**The marginal cost (MC) for the second unit is calculated as the change in total cost (TC) when the output increases from 1 to 2 units. \[ \text{MC} = \text{TC at 2 units} - \text{TC at 1 unit} = 65 - 50 = 15 \]Therefore, the marginal cost of the 2nd unit is 15. The correct answer is: **15**.
