INSTRUCTIONS FOR TABLE 1 and Two Graphs-21 points
1) Calculate the Total Cost (TC) for each level of output. (3 points)
2) Calculate the Average Fixed Cost (AFC) for each level of output. (3 points)
3) Calculate the Average Variable Cost (AVC) for each level of output. (3 points)
4) Calculate the Average Total Cost (ATC) for each level of output. (3 points)
5) Calculate the Marginal Cost (MC) for each level of output. (3 points)
Using the data from Table 1 draw two graphs:
Draw a graph showing the Total Fixed Cost, Total Variable Cost, and Total Cost curves. (3 points)
Draw a graph showing the Average Fixed Cost, Average Variable Cost, and Average Total Cost curves and Marginal Cost curve. (3 points)
