Answer #1

Given

q=2KL^2

Set K=1

q=2L^2

or L^2=0.5q

L=0.7071*q^0.5

a)

TC=r*K+w*L=50*1+8*L=50+8*(0.7071*q^0.5)=50+5.6568q^0.5

b)

In this case,

Fixed Cost=FC=$50

Total Variable Cost=VC=5.6568q^0.5

AFC=FC/q=50/q

AVC=TVC/q=5.6568q^0.5/q=5.6568/q^0.5

AC=AFC+AVC=(50/q)+(5.6568/q^0.5)

MC=dTC/dq=2.8284/q^0.5

c)

q FC VC=5.6568q^0.5
