Lux Autocorp is a company specialized in the production of luxury vehicles. Let’s assume its total cost of producing 4 cars is $450,000 and its total cost of producing 5 cars is $500,000. a) What is the average total cost of producing 4 cars? b) What is the marginal cost of the fifth car?
Homework Answers
A.
Average cost of producing 4 cars
=total cost / quantity
=4,50,000/4
=1,12,500.
B.
Marginal cost= change in total cost / change in quantity
=(5,00,000-4,50,000)/(5-4)
=50,000/1
=50,000.

1 The Middleman Model Let’s consider a middleman firm in the business of producing ethanol. Assume that the firm can produce its own corn (the feedstock) or it can purchase corn from third party farmers. The firm processes the corn into ethanol on its own. To maintain consistency with your notes, let’s call our feedstock Xh (in-house) and Xm (third party). Suppose the inverse demand curve is P = 105 − Q and the production function is Q =f(X) =...
