(b) Find the average cost and marginal cost. 1 (c) Draw the relationship between MC and AC. Prove that they always intersect at the minimum. (Hint: compute the derivative of AC with respect to q and set it equal to zero. Then use this equation to show that MC=AC)

Question 1. Cost concepts The concepts of "marginal cost" (MC) and "average cost" (AC) are routinely used in economics. (a) Suppose the total cost function is C(q) = 9+0.250, where is the output level of the firm. Derive the marginal cost and the average cost implied by this cost function. Provide a diagram (with q on the horizontal axis) to illustrate the shape of these MC and AC functions. (b) What does returns to scale mean? Does a firm with...
Question 3-4 SESSION 13 The marginal revenue is the rate of change in total revenue per unit increase in output, Q The marginal cost is the rate of change in total cost per unit increase in output, Q AR is defined as average revenue per unit for the first Q su ccessive units sold. AR is determined by dividing total reven ue by the quantity sold, Q The AR function is equal to price, P. where Pis given by the...
5, (20 points) Consider the following cost function: c(q:F)-F +109 + 뚤, where F > 0 represents the fixed cost F = c(QF). (a) (5 points) Compute the marginal cost function, MC(q) (q; F) b) (5 points) Show that the marginal cost function MC() is increasing. (c) (10 points) Recall the average cost function, AC(q; F) - Find (F the value of q (given F) at which AC(q; F) MC(4)
