In the short run, the law of diminishing returns Multiple Choice occurs for only a few economies. can be observed in every production process. ◻ does not occur in command economies. ◻ can be overcome by using more variable inputs. The average total cost (ATC) curve will be downward sloping so long as the Multiple Choice average variable cost is less than average total cost. marginal cost is greater than average total cost. average fixed cost is less than average total cost. marginal cost is less than average total cost.
