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.
