Why Marginal Cost (MC) is 1?? I did my calcutation and is 2. I replace on fucntion Q = L + (5)2 = L + 25, so L = Q - 25 and put on TC = 2(Q - 25) + 20(5) So TC = 2Q - 50 + 100 = 2Q + 50, then MC = dTC / dQ = 2 You may be replaced TC = wL + rK, but this function no contains Q variable Please confirm that. Thanks

Problem 1Advanced Electronics (AE) is a computer chip manufacturer. It has monthly fixed costs of $4,000,000. Its marginal costs are $1.00 per chip.Â· What happens if sales fall by 20% from 3,000,000 to 2.400.000 chips per month?â€¢ What happens to average fixed costs (AFC) per chip and the marginal costs per widget?â€¢ If sales fall by 20 percent from 3 million chips per month to 2,400,000 chips per month, what happens to the AFC per paper, the MC per paper, and to the minimum amount that you must charge to break even on these costs?Hint: Here Marginal Cost (MC) is constant, which implies that Average Variable Cost (AVC) is constant and equals MC. This does not imply Average Total Cost (ATC) is constant or has to equal MC. Total Cost (TC) = Fixed Cost (FC) + Variable Cost (VC). Divide through by the quantity Q, which implies TC/Q = FC/Q + VC/Q. This gives us ATC = AFC + AVC.Problem 2Assume that the cost data in this table are for a purely…
