Ebba Kantzen says the following: "I am currently producing 10,000 pizzas per month at a total cost of $50,000. If I produce 10,001 pizzas, my total cost will rise to $50,011. Therefore, my marginal cost of producing pizzas must be increasing." 1.) Using the point drawing tool, indicate the point of marginal cost. Label this point "Marginal cost." 2.) Using the point drawing tool, indicate the point of average total cost. Label this point "Average total cost." Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required objects.

After running a successful pineapple business, Diddy looks for a new business venture. Now he wants to run gold mining business named "Diddy Bling Bling" which produces/sells raw gold. For simplicity, two types of inputs are required to produce raw gold (workers and gold mine). In short- run production, the size of gold mine is fixed while the number or workers can vary. After consulting his business consultant, Diddy computes the following cost table. The quantity of raw gold (kilograms) Averaged Total Cost (gold mine size=small) Averaged Total Cost (gold mine size-medium) Averaged Total Cost (gold mine size-Large) 1 700 1400 1800 2 600 1300 1700 3 500 1200 1600 4 400 1100 1500 5 300 1000 1400 6 400 900 1300 7 500 800 1200 8 610 600 1100 9 700 500 1000 10 800 400 900 11 900 375 800 12 1100 250 700 13 1200 400 600 14 1300 490 500 15 1400 600 400 16 1500 700 350 17 1600 800 300 18 1700 900 350 19 1800 1000 400 20 1900 1100 500 21 2000 1200 600 22 2100 1300 700 Draw Diddy Bling Bling's…
A firm has a fixed production cost of $4000. For the first 100 units of production, the firm has a marginal cost of $50 per unit produced. Producing more than 100 units has a marginal cost of $70 per unit produced. The firm cannot produce more than 150 units. How much does it cost to produce at q=0? at q=50? at q=100? at q=125? at q=150? Graph the firm’s marginal cost function

Label each of the following as sunk cost, opportunity cost, or incremental costs and briefly explain why: (Chapter 2) You are deciding which car to buy. Car A is $24,000 and car B is $32,000. The difference in price is $8,000. What kind of cost does this represent? Answer: Your company invested $300,000 into a study to determine the feasibility of introducing a new product line into the business. The study recommended 2 mutually exclusive feasible alternatives. What kind of cost does the $300K represent? Answer: You have 2 alternatives for a $10,000 investment. Investment A provides a $500 return and investment B provides a $700 return. If you choose Alternative B, what does the $500 return from Alternative A represent? Answer:
