The total cost when producing zero units is $20.

The marginal cost for the first unit is $50.

The average total cost when producing three units is $65.67.

The average variable cost when producing four units is $98.

<h3>What are cost functions?</h3>

Fixed cost is cost that does not change with the quantity of output produced. An example of fixed cost is rent. Average fixed cost is fixed cost divided by total output.

Variable cost is the cost that changes with output. It increases the more output is produced. Average variable cost is variable cost divided by total output.

Total cost is the sum of fixed cost and variable cost. Average total cost is total cost divided by total output. Marginal cost is the change in total cost.

Total cost of producing zero units = fixed cost + variable cost

$20 + 0 = $20

Marginal cost of the first unit = (total cost of the first unit - total cost of the zero unit) / (2 - 1)

Total cost of the first unit = (average variable cost x total output) + fixed cost$20 + 50 = $70

Marginal cost = (70 - 20) / (2 - 1) = $50

The average total cost when producing three units = Total cost / total units

Total cost of three units = marginal cost of three units + total cost of two units

Total cost of two units = 105 + 92 = $197

The average total cost = $197 / 3 = $65.67

The average variable cost when producing four units = (412 - 20) / 4 = $98

ABC International can borrow $4,000,000 at LIBOR plus a lending margin of 0.65 percent per annum on a three-month rollover basis
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

C) $118,000

Explanation:

ABC International will have to pay the following interests:

  • for the first three month period:

$4,000,000 x (5.5% + 0.65%) x 1/4 = $61,500

  • for the second three month period:

$4,000,000 x (5% + 0.65%) x 1/4 = $56,500

total interest for the 6 month period = $61,500 + $56,500 = $118,000

Alfa Co. produces a product that has a variable cost of $3.00 per unit. The company's fixed costs are $30,000. The product is so
oee [108]

Answer:

Break-even point in units=  25,000

Break-even point (dollars)= $125,000

Explanation:

<u>To calculate the number of units to be sold and the sales dollars required, we will use the break-even point analysis. The following formulas are required:</u>

Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= (30,000 + 20,000) / (5 - 3)

Break-even point in units=  25,000

Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 50,000 / (2/5)

Break-even point (dollars)= $125,000

In the long run, a monopolistically competitive firm will earn: (A) normal profits because economic profits will attract new fir
enot [183]

Answer: Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

Correct Option: Normal profits because economic profits will attract new firms and there are no entry restrictions.

In a monopolistically competitive market, firms will earn an economic profit in the short run, so new firms attracted with these profits and decided to enter into the market in the long run.

There is no barriers on entry and exit of the firms in the monopolistically competitive market. When new firms enters into the market, as a result supply of differentiated products increases.

This causes the firm's market demand curve to shift leftwards. It will continue shifting to the left in the firm market demand curve till the point where it is nearly tangent to the average total cost curve.

At this point, firms earns zero normal profit and can earn normal profits in the long run same as a perfectly competitive firm.
