Suppose the firm’s total cost and marginal cost functions are given by TC=54+Q+2Q^3 and MC=1+4Q^2, respectively. What is the output level that minimizes average total cost?
A. 2
B. 3
C. 6
D. 8
Average total cost= 54/Q+1+2Q^2.
the average cost is minimum where it is equal to marginal cost.
1+4Q^2 = 54/Q +1+2Q^2
2Q^2 = 54/Q
Q^3 = 27
Q= 3.
Hence the correct option is
B. 3.
