Answer:

Ke = Rf  + β(Rm – Rf)

Ke = 4.5 + 1.20(12-4.5)

Ke = 4.5 + 9

Ke = 13.5%

In the short run, if average variable cost equals $50, average total cost equals $75, and output equals 100, the total fixed cos
musickatia [10]

Answer: $2500

Explanation:

From the question,

Average variable cost(AVC) = $50

Average total cost (ATC) = $75

Output (Q) = 100

Since Average fixed cost is the difference between the average total cost and the average Variable cost. This will be:

AFC = ATC - AVC

AFC = $75 - $50

AFC = $25

We should note that:

AFC = TFC / Q

TFC = AFC × Q

TFC = $25 × 100

TFC = $2500

Therefore, total fixed cost is $2500
