($/Unit) Marginal Cost Q1 Quantity (Units per time period) In the above diagram, marginal cost reaches its one and only minimum at Q1. Using the concept of marginal product, provide an explanation for the shape of the marginal cost function over the range of output less than Q1. Be sure to use the relevant concepts and terminology in your explanation. Provide a thorough explanation for how the fixed factor of production is related to the behaviour of the marginal cost of production in the short run.

10. Transaction costs Stella needs a new kitchen. She finds Stelios, a contractor, through an ad he posted in the local newspaper. Stelios paid $65 to post the ad in the newspaper. After Stella and Stelios agree on the price for the new kitchen, they sign a contract, which Stella has a law firm write up for $105, stating that Stelios will install Stella's new kitchen for $2,300. The transaction costs associated with this exchange are .

At what quantity of bags will profits be maximized? A Use the profit maximizing rule, MR ≥ MC, buy 300 bags. B Use the profit maximizing rule, MR ≥ MC, buy 200 bags. C Use Qb = F/(MR-AVC) where Qb is the breakeven quantity to be determined, the optimal quantity of bags is 300. D Use Qb = F/(MR-AVC) where Qb is the breakeven quantity to be determined, the optimal quantity of bags is 200.
please discuss this statement “Thw technical pattern that statistically significant could be economically insignificant.”
-All constraints and linear programs should be derived with explanation and hand written. Linear programs (when asked for) should then be written in COMPLETE PROPER FORM (ALL constraints , organized order and clear identication of variable meanings). All diagrams and graphics should be presented (repeated) enough times to clearly demonstrate the work process that was followed in carrying out your work. Legibility is necessary. Excel can be used for calculations, but the pdf of this work must be \hand" augmented with clear indications of what was being carried out Excel sheets involving solver must be fully explained and the solver window itself should be screen capped and submitted as part of your presentation to show the linear program youasked excel to solve. This is the Steps please follow. And I need you to write the steps please. Step by Step
