2. You are thinking to start your food catering business by making rolled tacos, which are often called taquitos (con tortillas) and flautas (flour tortillas). AS suggested, one important step is to estimate startup costs and prepare the budget. Your estimate shows, on a daily basis, your fixed cost (FC), including rent, utility, fees and tax, is about $300 per day. Your variable cost (VC) is largely depending on the units of labor (variable input) you are going to use. Hiring one labor will cost you S120 per day. Use the information given, to finish the questions below. (1) The table below presents the cost structure of your taco business. The first two columns give you the number of your output or tacos ((Y) and the units of labor inputs. To finish this table, you need to calculate variable cost (VC), total cost (TC), marginal cost (MC), average variable cost (AVC) and average total cost (ATC).
