Question

Suppose that a firm produces 10 units of output. Its Average Variable Cost (AVC) = $25, Average Fixed Cost (AFC) = $5, and Marginal Cost (MC) = $30. The firm's ________.
a.) Total cost is $300

b.)Average total cost (ATC) is $60

c.) Average total cost (ATC) is $35

d.)Total cost is $30

Answer 1

Answer:

Total Cost  = $300

Average Total Cost = $30  

correct option is a.) Total cost is $300

Explanation:

given data

produces output = 10 units

Marginal Cost = $30

Average Variable Cost = $25

Average Fixed Cost = $5

solution

first we get here total cost that is

Total Cost = Total Variable Cost + Total Fixed Cost    .................................1

so here Total Variable Cost = Average Variable Cost × Output    

Total Variable Cost = $25 ×  10

Total Variable Cost =  $250

and total fix cost is = Average Fixed Cost × Output

total fix cost = $5 × 10 =

total fix cost = $50

so Total Cost is here

Total Cost  = $250 + $50

Total Cost  = $300

A) is correct

and

Average Total Cost will be

Average Total Cost = $\frac{total\ cost}{out\ put}$    ...................2

Average Total Cost = $\frac{300}{10}$ = $30

Average Total Cost = $30
