Step 1

Let us  first understand what the following costs mean:

Total Cost (TC): Total costs are the total outlay in production activity.

Total Fixed Costs (TFC): Fixed costs are the costs that once incurred remain same at all levels of output.

Total Variable Costs (TVC): Variable costs are the costs that vary with the level of output.

Average Total Cost (ATC): Average total cost is the total cost per unit of output.

Average Fixed Cost (AFC): Average fixed cost is the fixed cost per unit of output.

Average Variable Cost (AVC): Average variable cost is the variable cost per unit of output.

Marginal Cost (MC): Marginal cost is the addition to total cost when an extra unit of output is produced.

Total Revenue (TR): Total Revenue is the total proceeds from the sale of a given level of output.

Profits (π): Profits are the total revenue (TR) net of total costs (TC).
