Use the table given below to answer the following question: Quantity Produced Total Cost ($) 0 50 1 60 2 70 3 80 4 90 5 100 Based on the table give above, we can say that MC is (greater than/less than/equal to) the AVC for every unit of production, and both are equal .
Question
Use the table given below to answer the following question: Quantity Produced Total Cost ($) 0 50 1 60 2 70 3 80 4 90 5 100 Based on the table give above, we can say that MC is (greater than/less than/equal to) the AVC for every unit of production, and both are equal .
Solution
The question seems to be incomplete as it does not specify what MC (Marginal Cost) and AVC (Average Variable Cost) are in the context of the given table. However, I can explain how to calculate MC and AVC based on the information provided.
-
Marginal Cost (MC) is the cost of producing one more unit of a good. It can be calculated by finding the difference in total cost when the quantity produced increases by one unit. For example, the MC of producing the first unit is 50 = $10.
-
Average Variable Cost (AVC) is the total variable cost divided by the quantity of output produced. Variable costs are those that change with the level of output. In this case, the table does not provide information about fixed and variable costs, so it's not possible to calculate AVC.
Without the complete information, we cannot definitively say whether MC is greater than, less than, or equal to AVC for every unit of production.
