The table below represents incomplete information on the short-run production costs for a firm, where: FC is fixed cost; TVC is total variable cost; TC is total cost; MC is marginal cost; and AFC, AVC, and ATC are average fixed, average variable, and average total cost, respectively. Based on the information provided in the table, complete the rest of the table. Note that values for FC, TVC, TC, AFC, AVC, and ATC should be placed on the same line as the corresponding quantity; values for MC should be placed between quantities. For example, the marginal cost of increasing output from 2 units to 3 units is $110, thus s110 is entered between Q=2 and Q=3 in the table. Find the quantity at which diminishing marginal returns set in.
