An increase in long-run average costs resulting from increases in output is __________.
Question 18 options:
attributed to constant returns to scale |
|
attributed to diseconomies of scale |
|
attributed to the law of diminishing marginal product |
|
attributed to economies of scale |
If increase in long run average cost results from increases in output means that attributed to diseconomies of scale.
explanation:
▪if long run averge cost(LRAC) is falling when output raise means that- economies of scale.
▪LRAC increases means diseconomices of scale.
▪LRAC is contant means contant returns to scale will occur..
so the answer opition B
An increase in long-run average costs resulting from increases in output is __________. Question 18 options:...
If a firm's long-run average cost goes from $3 to $2.5 when output increases, the firm is experiencing ________. economies of scale constant returns to scale diseconomies of scale a shift in its long-run average cost curve
When the firm increases output and the costs rise disproportionately slower, then the long-run average cost curve is _and the firm is experiencing O A. horizontal, constant returns to scale OB. upward sloping; diseconomies of scale O C. downward sloping; constant returns to scale OD. downward sloping, economies of scale
A decrease in the long-run average total cost as output increases is due to a declining average fixed cost. economies of scale. externalities. the law of diminishing returns.
The short run marginal cost curve in the traditional microeconomic model of production eventually rises because of a. diseconomies of scale. b. diminishing marginal revenues. c. rising fixed costs. d. increasing marginal productivity of variable inputs. e. diminishing marginal returns. . If the long-run average cost of production falls as the firm increases its level of output, then the firm exhibits a. constant returns to scale. b. constant marginal costs. c. economies of scale. d. diseconomies of scale. e. diminishing...
QUESTION 30 A downward-sloping portion of a long-run average total cost curve is the result of: economies of scale. diseconomies of scale. diminishing returns. the existence of fixed resources. 2.5 points QUESTION 31 In the long run, firms in many industries often experience a falling average total cost curve as a result of: gains through trade. increasing marginal returns. economies of scale. lower fixed costs. 2.5 points QUESTION 32 A large aircraft manufacturer, like Boeing, may have a...
13. As output (plant size) increases, economies of scale occur when the A) long-run average cost increases. B) long-run average cost decreases. C) short-run average total cost decreases. D) long-run average cost stays constant 14. Economies of scale can occur as a result of which of the following? A) increasing marginal costs as the firm increases its size B) higher fixed cost as the firm increases its size C) management difficulties as the firm increases its size D) greater specialization...
(Click to select) economies of scale a. Long-run average total cost falls as the firm realize: rises when the firm experiences [ (Click to select) diseconomies of scale diminishing marginal returns increasing marginal returns b. The minimum efficient scale is the level of output produced by the smallest firm in the industry. smallest level of output at which a firm can produce. only level of output where long-run average total costs are minimized. smallest level of output needed to attain...
QUESTION 11 At the current level of output, long-run marginal cost is $50 and long-run average cost is $75. This implies that: there are neither economies nor diseconomies of scale. there are economies of scale. there are diseconomies of scale. the cost-output elasticity is greater than one.
Most firms will eventually face increasing average costs as they try to increase output. The firm finds that each extra unit of output requires more inputs to produce than previous units, an outcome described as the law of diminishing marginal returns. The law of diminishing marginal returns states that as you try to expand output, your marginal productivity (the extra output associated with extra inputs) eventually declines The law of diminishing returns can limit the economies of scale and economies...
Economies of scale occur when: Select one: a. the long-run average cost rises as output increases. b. the marginal cost falls as output increases. c. average fixed costs are constant. d. the long-run average cost falls as output increases
