Micro Economics: Production and Costs

Question:

At zero level of output, if the total cost(TC) is 20. What will be the value of the Average Fixed cost (AFC) at the 6th level of output?

Options:

2.86

20

3.33

120

Correct Answer:

3.33

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) → 3.33

We are given:

  • Total Cost (TC) at zero output = 20
    Since no output is produced, this entire cost is the Fixed Cost (FC).

  • Output level = 6 units

To find Average Fixed Cost (AFC):

AFC=Total Fixed Cost / Output = 20 / 6 = 3.33
