Answer
Option 1
The LRAC curve is decreasing as output increasing is the range of the output of economies of scale and when it is increasing that is diseconomies of scale.

18. Which of the following is most accurate about the Minimum Encient Scale (MES) of arm? Because a firm has various short-run average cost curves. It also has various MES scales. MES is the scale of operation at which diseconomies of scale starts to dominate. OMES is the scale of operation where at least one short run average cost starts to increase Specialization of labor can contribute to a firm's productivity only after it has reached its MES.

__B__ 48. Economies of scale a. require inputs' MPP to fall as output increases (everything else equal). b. pertain to the long run only. c. refer to increased output generalized by an increase in the quantity of a single input. d. imply that the AC curve will fall continuously as output increases in the short run. __D__ 49. If in some production range average cost is rising, the firm is experiencing a. increasing returns to scale. b. decreasing returns to...

Marginal cost is constant as output increases. d. Marginal revenue is falling as output increases. 23. The figure below shows short-run average total cost curves for a firm under four different production technologies. Assume that there are only four different technologies that the firm could use.

Economies of scale refers to when:
In the long run when average total cost does not depend on the
quantity of output, this is called:
Commodities:
We assume that in the long run in a perfectly competitive
market:
Multiple Choice an increase in the quantity of output increases average total cost in the long run. None are correct. average total cost does not depend on the quantity of output in the long run. an increase in the quantity of output...

Question 3 Long-run average total cost (LAC) O a represents the lowest average cost of producing a given level of output. b. is always equal to or greater than short-run average total cost. c. can be measured in the short-run. If a firm is producing the level of output at which long-run average cost equals long-run marginal cost, then a long-run marginal cost is at its minimum point b. long run average cost is at its minimum point. c long...

Part 1:
When a firm operates with economies of scale, average production
costs:
1) rise when the firm gets larger.
2) fall as the firm gets larger.
3) fall as the firm gets smaller.
4) are unaffected by firm size.
Part 2:
“U-shaped” long-run average cost curves show that as firms get
larger, they usually experience:
1) economies of scale.
2) constant returns to scale.
3) diseconomies of scale.
4) a, b, and c, in that order.
