Question: Based on a consulting economist’s report, the total and marginal cost functions for Advanced Electronics, Inc. are
TC= 200 + 5Q – 0.04Q 2 + 0.001Q 3
MC = 5 – 0.08Q + 0.003Q 2
The president of the company determines that knowing only these equations is inadequate for decision making. You have been directed to do the following:
- Determine the level of fixed cost (if any) and equations for average total cost, average variable cost, and average fixed cost.
- Determine the rate of output that results in minimum average variable cost.
- If fixed costs increase to $500, what output rate will result in minimum average variable cost?
