- What is the relationship between marginal product and marginal cost? (Hint: Look at the curves.) Why do you suppose that is? Is this relationship the same in the long run as in the short run?Average cost curves (except for avenge fixed cost) tend to be U-shaped, decreasing and then increasing. Marginal cost curves have the same shape, though this may be harder to see since most of the marginal cost curve is increasing. Why do you think that average and marginal cost curves have the same general shape?How does fixed cost affect marginal cost? Why is this relationship important?
- An ice cream producer has fixed costs of $70,000 per month, and it can produce up to 15,000 ice cream tubs per month. Each tub costs $10 in the market whilethe producer faces variable costs of $3 per tub.a. What is the economic breakeven level of production?b . Calculate the ice cream producer’s monthly profits at full capacity. What would happen to the monthly profits if another ice cream producer entered themarket, driving the price of ice cream tubs down to $7 per unit?Requireda. How much is the fixed cost to produce the natural-organic oil? b. How many barrels of natural-organic oil should the firm produce to maximize its profit? c. How much is the price of the natural-organic oil per barrel? d. At what production level would the marginal cost exceed the average cost? e.bHow many barrels of natural-organic oil reflect the lowest minimum average variable cost?a. Why will firms in most markets be located at or close to the bottom of the longrun average cost curve? b. Distinguish between implicit and explicit costs. How is it possible to havepositive accounting profit and negative economic profit concurrently? c. Distinguish between economies of scale and constant returns to scale. What shape will the long-run average cost curve have for economies of scale andconstant returns to scale. d. What is the difference between production in the short run and production in the long run?

Apu's short-run cost function is: C(q, K) = 0.85-9² +0.5K, where q is the number of squishies produced and K is the number of squishy K² Total Cost Variable Cost machines used. Apu's long-run cost function is: CLR(q) = 1.139 what happens to Apu's short-run average total cost of producing 40 squishies? Does Apu's long-run cost function exhibit increasing, constant, or decreasing returns to scale? 3) Complete the following table: 90 180 Fixed Cost Variable Fixed Cost Cost 60 10 Marginal Cost 80 Marginal Cost 20 213. 50 If Apu decides to lease 7 squishy machines,Nina is a farmer that grows and sells tomatoes. Her total explicit and implicit costs are 950000 per year, and her explicit fixed cost are 340000 per year. Nina could otherwise earn 60000 in her next best alternative lone of business or employment. Each bushel of tomatoes sells for $40. This year, nina sold 25000 bushels of tomatoes. What are ninas average fixed costs, average variable costs, and average total costs of production? Interpret what each of these costs mean for nina. What is ninas economic profit? What is her accounting profit?A firm is producing 20 units with an averagetotal cost of $25 and a marginal cost of $15. Ifit increases production to 21 units, which of thefollowing must occur?a.
