The economies of scale is the cost advantages enjoyed by a firm from producing more and more output. When the firm are experiencing economies of scale the average cost will decrease as the ouput increases. The economies of scale is represented by the downward sloping portion of the average cost curve.
In the graph we can see that the average cost is decreasing up to the ouput level 8 and then increasing.

The graph below shows a monopolist's demand (D), marginal revenue (MR), marginal cost (MC), and average total cost (ATC) curves. Management wants to adjust the production output quantity to maximize the firm's profits. What quantity should the firm aim for?Give your answer by dragging the Q line to a new position to mark the quantity at which profit is as large as possible.

Q1: The following graph shows the current short-run average total cost (ATC), short-run marginal cost (MC), and long-run average cost (LATC) curves of a typical perfectly competitive firm that uses only labour and physical capital to produce its product and the current market price (PⓇ). S/unit MC ATC LATC B Pa E Q1 Q2 Quantity a) How many units of output would the firm choose to produce in the short run? Explain. b) Is the firm making an economic profit...
The graph to the right shows the Marginal Cost (MC), Average Total Cost (ATC), and Marginal Revenue (MR) curves for a perfectly (or purely) competitive firm. Note that the Demand (D) curve is the same as the MR curve for such a MR/MC ($) firm. Assume that the cost curves here are representative of other firms in the industry. Given the current price, this firm will: earn a positive profit. earn a negative profit. earn zero economic profit. In the...
The graph below shows the demand (D), marginal revenue (MR), marginal cost (MC), and average total cost (ATC) curves for a hazardous-waste removal firm that operates as a local monopoly. If the market quantity is 400 barrels, use the area tool to draw the rectangle that represents the firm's profits. Your answer should be a rectangle drawn with four corners.
50 A MC The accompanying graph depicts average total cost (ATC), marginal cost (MC), marginal revenue (M), and demand (D) facing a monopolistically competitive firm.

In the graph above, MC is the firm's marginal cost curve, ATC is the firm's average total cost curve, and AVC is the firm's average variable cost curve. If the firm faces a price greater than P2, then the firm will stay open in both the short and the long run. the firm will stay open in the short run, but close in the long run. the firm will close in both the short and the long run.
