Section 11.5 The Short-Run and Long-Run Average Total Cost Curves exhibit 1 SRATC for small plant SRATC for medium plant SRATC tor large plant LRATC B $500 $400 Economies of Scale Constant Returns to Saie 1,000 1,200 Quantity of Computers (per day) Notice that the long-run average total cost (LRATC) curve is much flatter than the short-run average total cost (SRATC) curve. This is because firms can be more flexible in the long run-they can choose which short-run cost curve they want to operate along, by choosing their plant scale. But they cannot do this in the short run, during which they are stuck with their existing short-run cost curve. That is, in the short run, the firm operates with the short-run curve it has based on past decisions. However, in the lang run, the firm is able to choose the short-run curve it wants to use. In Exhibit 1 above, explain why the curve between A and B looks different than the curve from A to C. Provide an example of how a firm could opt to follow the…

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.
