Answer 1

Answer:

The average fixed cost is $2.4.

Explanation:

Vipsana's Gyros House sells gyros.

The cost of ingredients​ to make a gyro is​ $2.00.  

Vipsana pays her employees​ $60 per day.  

She also incurs a fixed cost of​ $120 per day.

The cost incurred on ingredients and workers is a variable cost.  

The total fixed is thus $120.  

The average fixed cost for 50 gyros

= $\frac{TFC}{Q}$

= $\frac{120}{50}$

= $2.4
