Explanation:
ATC & AVC curve intersects MC curve at their respective minimum point. Initially ATC curve lies above the MC curve but after intersection MC curve will lie on the above of ATC curve. AVC curve always remains below the ATC curve because for the fixed cost . As we know total cost is the sum of fixed cost and variable cost.
TC = FC + VC
AVC = VC / Q
ATC = TC / Q

Each graph illustrates three short-run cost curves for firms, where ATC is average total cost (also referred to as average cost), MC is marginal cost, and AVC is average variable cost. Please classify each of the graphs as valid or invalid based on what you know about the relationships between these curves.

The graph below shows the marginal cost (MC), average variable cost (AVC), and average total cost (ATC) curves for a firm in a competitive market. These curves imply a short-run supply curve that has two distinct parts. One part, not shown, lies along the vertical axis (quantity = 0); this represents a condition of production shutdown. Where is the other part? Use the straight-line tool to draw it.
Consider the competitive market for halogen lamps. The following graph shows the marginal cost (MC), average total cost (ATC), and average variable cost (AVC) curves for a typical firm in the industry. For each price in the following table, use the graph to determine the number of lamps this firm would produce in order to maximize its profit. Assume that when the price is exactly equal to the average variable cost, the firm is indifferent between producing zero lamps and the...
Q1: The following graph shows the current short-run average total cost (ATC), short-run marginal cost (MC), and long-run average cost (LATC) curves of a typical perfectly competitive firm that uses only labour and physical capital to produce its product and the current market price (PⓇ). S/unit MC ATC LATC B Pa E Q1 Q2 Quantity a) How many units of output would the firm choose to produce in the short run? Explain. b) Is the firm making an economic profit...
6. Short-run supply and long-run equilibrium Consider the competitive market for copper. Assume that, regardless of how many firms are in the industry, every firm in the Industry is identical and faces the marginal cost (MC), average total cost (ATC), and average variable cost (AVC) curves shown on the following graph. The following diagram shows the market demand for copper. Use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the initial short-run industry supply curve when there are 20 firms in the market. (Hint:...

6. Long-run cost relationships The following graph shows the short-run average total cost curves and the long-run average cost curve for a publishing firm. The five marked quantities indicate points of tangency between each short-run average total cost curve (ATC) and the long-run average cost curve (LRAC); for example, Q1 marks the point of tangency between ATC, and LRAC. The orange point on ATC indicates the firm's current output level in the short run (Qs). ATC LRAC ATC ATC, COST...
10. Long-run cost relationships The following graph shows the short-run average total cost curves and the long-run average total cost curve for a publishing firm. The five marked quantities indicate points of tangency between each short-run average total cost curve (ATC) and the long-run average total cost curve (LRATC); for example, Q, marks the point of tangency between ATC, and LRATC. The orange point on ATC3 indicates the firm's current output level in the short run (0). ATC AT LRA...
