The figure above illustrates the long-run average cost curve for a firm that produces picture frames. The graph also includes short-run average cost curves for three firm sizes: ATC₂, ATC and ATCC. The minimum efficient scale of output is reached at what rate of output? 10,000 picture frames. 15,000 picture frames. 10,000 workers. 20,000 picture frames.

The following table shows the capital and labor requirements for 10 different levels of production. Assuming that the price of labor (PL) is $9 per unit and the price of capital (PK) is $8 per unit, compute and graph total cost, marginal cost, and average cost for the firm. To do this, fill in the total cost for each output level in the table below.

fixed cost is the same at each output level except when no output is produced. when a firm produces no output,there are no fix cost. true or false? explain
Problem 7. A factory that you are managing has an hourly production process that can be represented by the following Cobb Douglas Production function: Q 20KL The price of one unit of capital per hour is $20 and the price of one unit of labour per hour is $20. You have been instructed to have a total cost of $1,000 or TC $1,000. Find the optimal amount of labour and capital that you will be using, and compute the amount of output..
Using the graph below, determine the output level at which the minimum efficient scale is achieved by the firm. The subscripts 1, 2, and 3 for the SRATC curves refer to different plant sizes.

An economist estimated that the cost function of a single-product firm is:C(Q) = 60 + 30Q + 25Q2 + 5Q3.Based on this information, determine the following:a. The fixed cost of producing 10 units of output.$ b. The variable cost of producing 10 units of output.$ c. The total cost of producing 10 units of output.$ d. The average fixed cost of producing 10 units of output.$ e. The average variable cost of producing 10 units of output.$ f. The average total cost of producing 10 units of output.$ g. The marginal cost when Q = 10.$
In the short run the marginal cost of the first unit of output is $20, the marginal cost of the second unit of output is $16, and the marginal cost of the third unit of output is $14. The firm's total cost of producing three units of output is
The following equation represents the cost structure of a firm: C= 10 + 3q. The average cost of production is
The ATC of a Firm is 25 when its output level is 21. The marginal cost producing the next unit is 33. Please find the ATC of the firm after it produces the next unit.
When a firm produces one unit, the variable cost is $8. When the firm produces two units, the variable cost is $16. What is the marginal cost of producing the second unit? $8 $4 $24 $2
Suppose a firm’s total cost curve is TC = 50Q2 + 10Q + 800 and marginal cost is MC = 100Q + 10. Find the output level that minimizes average total cost and average variable cost, respectively.
Explain the effects of an increase in fixed costs on the optimal levels of production. Draw shifted total cost, average cost, and marginal cost curves to illustrate your answer.
