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 marginal returns.

The reason behind positive slope of marginal cost curve is diminishing marginal productivities of inputs.
2. c. economies of scale.

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...
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...
8:587 18:26:20 Exit D 24. The figure below shows short-run average total cost curves for a firm under four different production technologies. Assume that there are only four different technologies that the firm could use. Price ATC, ATC ATC Q, Q.QQQQQ Quantity Refer to the figure above. Between the output quantity QA and QC, the long-run average total cost curve of the firm exhibits constant returns to scale diminishing marginal product diseconomies of scale economies of scale
In the long run, if 1,000 units are produced at a cost of $8,000 and 1,200 units at a cost of $9,200, then in this output range there are Select one: a. economies of scale b. increasing marginal returns c. diminishing marginal returns d. decreasing marginal costs e. diseconomies of scale
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...
1. The long-run average cost curve slopes upward if there are: A. economies of scale B. diseconomies of scope in the management of multiplant operates C. Some factors without diminishing marginal returns D. diseconomies of scale E. no factor without diminishing marginal returns
Increasing returns to scale is characterized by: a. economies of scale; that is, the average cost falls as output rises. b. constantly declining fixed costs. c. diseconomies of scale; that is, the average cost is constant as output rises. d. diseconomies of scale; that is, the average cost falls as output rises. e. economies of scale; that is, the average cost rises as output rises.
Which of the following statements is (are) correct? (x) The average variable cost curve declines as quantity increases because variable costs always decrease as output increases. (y) The average variable cost curve and average total cost curve will eventually intersect as output increases because average fixed cost eventually becomes negative. (z) The marginal cost curve crosses the average total cost curve at the efficient scale, which occurs at the minimum point on the average total cost curve. A. (x), (y)...
