Answer: Economies of scale occur when a firms long run average cost curve is downward sloping.
A firm enjoys economies of scale when it's average cost reduces with the increase in production. It basically when the firm has a cost advantage. As more and more goods are produced, the average cost keeps on declining leading to a downward sloping AC curve.
