Question 1. Cost concepts The concepts of "marginal cost" (MC) and "average cost" (AC) are routinely used in economics. (a) Suppose the total cost function is C(q) = 9+0.250, where is the output level of the firm. Derive the marginal cost and the average cost implied by this cost function. Provide a diagram (with q on the horizontal axis) to illustrate the shape of these MC and AC functions. (b) What does returns to scale mean? Does a firm with...

1 Economies of Scale Consider the total cost function (TC): TC(q) = 100+ 40 + 492 where q is output. 1.1 (10 points) Obtain the index of the extent of scale economies S = MCQ, where AC is average cost and MC is marginal cost. What is the value of this index when q = 2? Provide an intuitive interpretation for this number. 1.2 (10 points) Is there any range of production characterized by scale economies? At what production level...

e) Suppose that a competitive firm's marginal cost of producing output q is given by MC(q) -3+2q. Assume that the market price of the firm's product is $9. i) What level of output will the firm produce? (2p) ii) What is the firm's producer surplus? (4p) ii) Suppose that the average variable cost of the firm is given by AVC(g)-3+q. Suppose that the firm's fixed costs are known to be $3. Will the firm be earning a positive, negative, or...
