Answer:

The law of diminishing marginal utility

Explanation:

Simply put, as more (additional unit) of a good is consumed the lesser the marginal utility or satisfaction derived.

For example, a child might request a certain type of chocolate form his parents for a period of time.

After sometime, the child may buy less and choose another type of chocolate or prefer to buy cake instead because the satisfaction he initially got from the chocolate is diminishing.

Cost                              $2,600                         $1,390

Timing of course          Weekday                     Weekend

The average total cost curve and the marginal cost curve are related in that:
Serga [27]

Answer:

C. the MC curve passes through the minimum point of the ATC curve.

Explanation:

Marginal cost is the cost of producing additional unit, it is upward sloping as generally the cost that is additional as it tends to increase with increase in output.

Whereas Average Total Cost is a U shaped curve, it basically starts from a high point and then tends to decrease as the increase in number of units with constant fixed cost tends to decrease the average, but ultimately after it reaches its lowest point it tends to increase because now to produce units, there is extra cost required.

The Marginal Cost Curve touches the Average Total Cost curve at its lowest.
