. Define and explain the difference between the long run and the short-run production functions. Why are short-run costs higher than costs in the long run? Why are the short-run average and marginal cost curves U shaped? What generates a U shape for the long-run average and marginal cost curves?
10. Long-run cost relationships The following graph shows the short-run average total cost curves and the long-run average total cost curve for a publishing firm. The five marked quantities indicate points of tangency between each short-run average total cost curve (ATC) and the long-run average total cost curve (LRATC); for example, Q, marks the point of tangency between ATC, and LRATC. The orange point on ATC3 indicates the firm's current output level in the short run (0). ATC AT LRA...
The following graph shows the short-run average total cost curves and the long-run average total cost curve for a publishing firm. The five marked quantities indicate points of tangency between each short-run average total cost curve (ATC) and the long-run average total cost curve (LRATC); for example, Qı marks the point of tangency between ATCi and LRATC The orange point on ATC1 indicates the firm's current output level in the short run (2) ATC, ATCs ATC ATC OUTPUT In the...
6. Long-run cost relationships The following graph shows the short-run average total cost curves and the long-run average cost curve for a publishing firm. The five marked quantities indicate points of tangency between each short-run average total cost curve (ATC) and the long-run average cost curve (LRAC); for example, Q1 marks the point of tangency between ATC, and LRAC. The orange point on ATC indicates the firm's current output level in the short run (Qs). ATC LRAC ATC ATC, COST...
How does learning by doing affect average total costs? Short-run average total costs will rise because employees will continually fail, causing training costs (variable costs) to increase for the firm. Short-run average total costs will rise because firms will hire employees that have failed in previous jobs, causing decreased productivity Short-run average total costs will fall because employees learn which production processes work and become more productive given the available inputs. Short-run average total costs will remain unchanged because any...
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...
Ooo QUESTION 23 The minimum possible short-run average costs are equal to long-run average costs when short-run and long-run costs are declining. O production is at any point on the LAC curve. the plant is producing at its short-run minimum point. O the long-run curve is at a minimum point. QUESTION 24 Click Save and Submit to save and submit.

The following graph shows the short-run average total cost curves and the long-run average total cost curve for a publishing firm. The five marked quantities indicate points of tangency between each short-run average total cost curve ( SRATC ) and the long-run average total cost curve ( LRATC ); for example, Q1 marks the point of tangency between SRATC1 and LRATC . 7. Long-run cost relationships The following graph shows the short-run average total cost curves and the long-run average...
How do macroeconomists typically define the difference between the “short run” and the “long run”? Is the classical model of a closed economy (Mankiw, chapter 3) considered a short run model or a long run model? Why?
The following graph shows the short-run average total cost curves and the long-run average total cost curve for a publishing firm.
