For manufacturing a certain item, the fixed cost is ₹6000 and the cost of producing each unit is ₹20. What is the total cost and average cost of producing 100 units? |
Total Cost = ₹2000, Average Cost = ₹20 Total Cost = ₹6000, Average Cost = ₹60 Total Cost = ₹8000, Average Cost = ₹80 Total Cost = ₹8000, Average Cost = ₹100 |
Total Cost = ₹8000, Average Cost = ₹80 |
The correct answer is Option (3) → Total Cost = ₹8000, Average Cost = ₹80 Total fixed cost = ₹6000, variable cost of producing one unit = ₹20 ∴ Total cost, $TC = ₹(6000+ 20x)$, where x is the number of units produced. Total cost of producing 100 units = $₹(6000+ 20 × 100)=₹8000$ ∴ Average cost of producing 100 units = $₹\frac{8000}{100}=₹80$ |
