A < CENGAGE MINDTAP Homework(Ch 13) 5. Costs in the short run versus in the long run Ike's Bikes is a major manufacturer of bicycles. Currently, the company produces bikes using only one factory. However, it is considering expanding production to two or even three factories. The following table shows the company's short-run average total cost (SRATC) each month for various levels of production if it uses one, two, or three factories. (Note: Q equals the total quantity of bikes produced by all factories.) Number of Factories Q = 100 1 360 2 540 3 720 Q = 200 200 300 400 . Average Total Cost (Dollars per bike) Q = 300 Q = 400 240 160 160 160 160 240 Q = 500 Q = 600 400 720 300 540 200 360 Suppose Ike's Bikes is currently producing 500 bikes per month in its only factory. Its short-run average total cost is $ per bike. Suppose Ike's Bikes is expecting to produce 500 bikes per month for several years. In this case, in the long run, it would choose to produce bikes using Q Search this course Ⓒ On the following graph, plot the three SRATC curves for Ike's Bikes from the previous table. Specifically, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot its SRATC curve if it operates one factory (SRATC₁); use the purple points (diamond symbol) to plot its SRATC curve if it operates two factories ( OLD O X 7:59 PM 7/11/2022

Section 11.5 The Short-Run and Long-Run Average Total Cost Curves exhibit 1 SRATC for small plant SRATC for medium plant SRATC tor large plant LRATC B $500 $400 Economies of Scale Constant Returns to Saie 1,000 1,200 Quantity of Computers (per day) Notice that the long-run average total cost (LRATC) curve is much flatter than the short-run average total cost (SRATC) curve. This is because firms can be more flexible in the long run-they can choose which short-run cost curve they want to operate along, by choosing their plant scale. But they cannot do this in the short run, during which they are stuck with their existing short-run cost curve. That is, in the short run, the firm operates with the short-run curve it has based on past decisions. However, in the lang run, the firm is able to choose the short-run curve it wants to use. In Exhibit 1 above, explain why the curve between A and B looks different than the curve from A to C. Provide an example of how a firm could opt to follow the…

Costs and Profit Maximization: Work It Out 1 Suppose Margie decides to lease a photocopier and open up a black-and-white photocopying service in her dorm room for use by faculty and students. Her total cost, as a function of the number of copies she produces per month, is given in the table. Number of Photocopies Per Month Total Cost Fixed Cost Variable Cost Total Revenue Profit 0 $100         1,000 $110         2,000 $125         3,000 $145         4,000 $175         5,000 $215         6,000 $285         a. Fill in the missing numbers in the table, assuming that Margie can charge 6 cents per black-and-white copy. Margie's fixed cost is: $       Variable cost, 0 photocopies/month: $     Variable cost, 1,000 photocopies/month: $     Variable cost, 2,000 photocopies/month: $     Variable cost, 3,000 photocopies/month: $     Variable cost, 4,000 photocopies/month: $…

Which of the following statements about average and marginal cost is INCORRECT? (2)(1) The marginal cost curve cuts both the average cost and average variable costcurves at their minimum points;(2) The marginal cost curve cuts both the average fixed cost and average variablecost curves at their minimum points;(3) The marginal cost curve lies below the average cost curve when average costis decreasing;(4) Marginal cost is the change in total cost when one extra unit of output isproduced.
