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.

A firm's minimum efficient scale is the smallest quantity of output at which long-run average cost reaches its lowest level. C. D. At outputs greater than the minimum efficient scale, a firm experiences economies of scale. At outputs less than the minimum efficient scale, a firm experiences diseconomies of scale.
