- Determine the total cost function.
- Determine the (i) average fixed, (ii) average variable, (iii) average total, and (iv) marginal cost functions.
- Determine the value of Q at which point the average variable cost function takes on its minimum value. Hint: Take the first derivative of the AV C function, set the derivative equal to 0, and solve for Q. Also use the second derivative to check for a maximum or minimum.
- Determine the value of Q at which point the marginal cost function takes on its minimum value.
