1. When ONLY Total Costs (TC) are known, explain how to calculate each of the following:
a. Fixed Costs (FC)
b. Variable Costs (VC)
c. Average Variable Costs (AVC)
d. Average Total Costs (ATC)
e. Average Fixed Costs (AFC)
f. Marginal Costs (MC)
a)
Fixed Cost is equal to TC at zero output. Look for TC at zero output,
FC=TC at output=0
It remains the same for all output levels.
b)
Variable Cost is equal to the difference between TC and VC. So,
Variable Cost (VC)=TC-FC
c)
Average Variable Cost is equal to variable cost divided by output level.
AVC=VC/Q (Q=output)
d)
Average Total Cost is equal to total cost divided by output level.
ATC=TC/Q (Q=output)
e)
Average Fixed Cost is equal to fixed cost divided by output level.
AFC=FC/Q (Q=output)
f)
Marginal Cost=Change in TC/Change in Q
1. When ONLY Total Costs (TC) are known, explain how to calculate each of the following:...
The total cost (TC) of producing computer software diskettes (Q) is given as: TC = 100 + 10Q. What is the; a. fixed cost (FC), b. variable cost (VC), c. marginal cost (MC), d. average fixed cost (AFC), e. average variable cost (AVC), f. average total cost (ATC)?
