For our up(combing) (pun intended) campaign, I want to make it as effective as possible, a cut
above all other ad campaigns! I'm thinking that since 85 (or 56.7%) of the 150 people who
clicked through to our website are age 40 or less, we should focus our ads to only younger
people. I'm not great with number though, and since I know you had a stats class in college, I
wanted to get your opinion. Should we focus our adds only to those age 40 and under or should
we do something else?
Calculate the TC, MC, ATC, AVC and AFC. Plot on the Graphs and analyze the relationships.
