Total cost = Variable cost + Fixed cost .
Fixed cost will not vary with output . So it will not be a function of Q .

Suppose a firm's production function is Q = (KL)0.5. In the short run, this firm's capital stock is fixed at 100. Calculate the firm's short run total cost curve if w = 5 and v = 5. It can be shown (using calculus) that this firm's short run marginal costs are .1Q. In order to maximize its profits, how much would the firm choose to produce if the market price of its output was $5, $10, or $20. For each...

Consider a firm whose production function is Q = 0.4K0.5 L0.5. Its level of capital is fixed at 100 units, the price of labor is PL = $4 per unit, and the price of capital is PK = $2 per unit. Given this information, the firm's cost structure is given by: Group of answer choices TFC = 200, TVC = Q2/4, TC = 200 + Q2/4, AFC = 200/Q, AVC = Q/4, ATC = 200/Q + Q/4, MC = Q/2...
