Answer:

The answer is: D) less than average variable cost.

Explanation:

If a company shuts down its production temporarily (not permanently), it will stop receiving revenue from the goods it used to produce but at the same time it will not be spending any money on variable costs. The company will suffer losses equivalent to its fixed costs (e.g. depreciation costs, rent, etc.).

A company decides to shut down its production when the revenue it receives from selling its products doesn't even cover their variable costs. That means it is losing money by producing its goods.

Answer:

This illustrates the principle that;

c.people face trade-offs.

Explanation:

Commercial transaction especially in business involve various situations that can mirror underlying economic principals, An example of the many economic principals is trade-off. This principal is explained in detail below;

1. Trade-off

A trade-off is a compromise between two desirable products that are incompatible. A trade-off usually involves the foregoing of one choice for the other, it usually involves the sacrifice of one of two products which have the same qualities but one only limited to picking one choice. A trade-off usually happens in business dealings. An example is a situation where one needs to purchase two items that have the same cost and the amount of money the buyer wants to buy can only be enough for one of the products. In this case, the buyer will have to sacrifice one product for the other based on the prevailing financial status limiting him/her from purchasing both of them.

Lawrence's case is a classic trade-off scenario since he is torn between buying a flash for his camera or a new tripod. He needs both of them with equal measure but he can only afford one at a time. This means that he will have to choose one over the other, a principle known as a trade-off.
