The table below shows a firm's average total costs for different production levels in different size factories. Use this table to answer the following two questions. Small Factory Output Medium Factory Large Factory 50 $ 100.00 $ 150.00 $ 300.00 100 $ 90.00 $ 100.00 $ 180.00 150 $ 85.00 $ 90.00 $ 95.00 200 $ 95.00 $ 80.00 $ 85.00 250 $ 150.00 $ 97.00 $ 75.00 300 $ 370.00 $ 160.00 $ 100.00 350 $ 600.00 $ 285.00 $ 200.00 400 $ 850.00 $ 425.00 $ 310.00 6. Which of the following IS on the firm's long run average total cost curve? a) Output of 200 for an average total cost of $80. b) Output of 200 for an average total cost of $85. c) Output of 250 for an average total cost of $150. d) Output of 350 for an average total cost of $285.

b. The table below shows the costs of production data of a firm producing bicycles. (i) State the value of the firm's total fixed cost. Give one example of fixed cost relevant to this firm. (ii) Based on the information provided, complete the table above by computing the firm's Total Costs, Average Variable Costs, Average Total Costs and Marginal Costs at all level of output.

2. Suppose that for a particular firm, the only variable input into the production process is labor, and that output equals zero when no workers are hired. In addition, suppose that the average total cost when 5 units of output are produced is $30, and the marginal cost of the sixth unit of output is $60. What is the average total cost when six units are produced? a. $10 b. $25 c. $30 d. $35 Table 13-15 Output Total Cost 0 $40 10 $60 20 $90 30 $130 40 $180 50 $240 3. Refer to Table 13-15. What is the average fixed cost when output is 40 units? a. $1.00 b. $3.32 c. $5.00 d. $8.00

The table shows the cost of manufacturing various quantities of an item and the revenue obtained from their sale. $$\begin{array}{r|r|r|r|r|r|r|r|r|r}\hline \text { Quantity } & 0 & 10 & 20 & 30 & 40 & 50 & 60 & 70 & 80 \\ \hline \text { cost (S) } & 120 & 400 & 600 & 780 & 1000 & 1320 & 1800 & 2500 & 3400 \\\hline \text { Revenue (S) } & 0 & 300 & 600 & 900 & 1200 & 1500 & 1800 & 2100 & 2400 \\\hline \end{array}$$ (a) What range of production levels appears to be profitable? (b) Calculate the profit or loss for each of the quantities shown. Estimate the most profitable production level.
