What are the differences between linear and nonlinear cost functions? Give an example of each type.
Differences between linear and non linear cost fuction
Linear Cost Function | Non linear Cost Function |
1. Linear Cost Function expresses cost as a straight line. | 1. Nin linear cost function expresses cost as a curved line. |
2. It presents a constant rate of change. | 2. It does not represent a constant rate of change. |
3. Linear Cost Function graph looks like a straight line | 3. It looks like a curved line. |
4. The distance between any two consecutive points must be same. | 4. The distance between the two consecutive points will not increase or decrease at a same amount. |
5. The fixed cost does not change for increase in quantity | 5. In this fixed cost remain same upto certain quantity and changes for increase in quantity from that certain limit. This is a step wise fixed cost(Semi variable Cost ). |
Examples of Linear and Non-Linear Cost Function:
Linear Cost Function
Qty | Fixed Cost* | Variable Cost | Total Cost |
0 | 10,000 | 0 | 10,000 |
1 | 10,000 | 2,000 | 12,000 |
2 | 10,000 | 4,000 | 14,000 |
3 | 10,000 | 6,000 | 16,000 |
4 | 10,000 | 8,000 | 18,000 |
5 | 10,000 | 10,000 | 20,000 |
*Fixed Cost is constant.
Non-Linear Cost Function
Qty | Fixed Cost** | Variable Cost | Total Cost |
0 | 10,000 | 0 | 10,000 |
1 | 10,000 | 2,000 | 12,000 |
2 | 12,000 | 4,000 | 16,000 |
3 | 12,000 | 6,000 | 18,000 |
4 | 14,000 | 8,000 | 22,000 |
5 | 14,000 | 10,000 | 24,000 |
** Fixed Cost is 0-1 - 10,000, 2-3 - 12,000 & 4-5- 14,000

what are the similarities and differences between an arithmetic sequence and a linear equation?ok i know that arithmetic sequence is a sequence of real numbers for which each term is the previous term plus a constant (called the common difference). For example, starting with 1 and using a common difference of 4 we get the finite arithmetic sequence: 1, 5, 9, 13, 17, 21; and also the inifinite sequence 1, 5, 9, 13, 17, 21, 25, 29, . . .,...
