Delvig [45]

Answer: A firm should not continue production when its MR is lower than its AVC.

Explanation:

The goal of every firm is to minimize cost and also maximize profits and therefore the firm will operate at the output level where the marginal revenue and the marginal cost equates.

A firm should not continue production when its MR is lower than its AVC. Here, the firm will incur a higher loss during production as producing will not offset the variable cost. Therefore, it's better to shut down.

I want to start my own brand & build a fashion empire. Should I go to a fashion college or to a business school?

Honestly, business would be much better for you. Learning business will give you many more opportunities and learn how to sell your products. Business will help you with marketing, pricing, discounting, and know how to "not get effed over." I believe that would be much better for you THEN go to fashion college.
