Variable costs depends on how much is used. Ex: water bill.

people can have a lot or not much but depends on how much.

What is average over time?

Average over time refers to the calculation of the mean or average value of a given variable over a specific period. This involves adding up all the values of the variable during that period and dividing by the number of observations. It helps in understanding the trend or behavior of the variable over time.


What is the cost of extracting granite rocks?

The cost of quarrying granite is so variable, that it is impossible to give a precise figure.


How can you find the variable cost per unit based on fixed cost-year and selling price per unit with volume unit-year?

VC= total cost- fixed cost This formula will not give you the variable cost per unit... you can find VC/unit by high/low method. e.g., no. of units cost 200 7000 300 8000 400 9000 1. select the highest and lowest no. of units (400 and 200)and their costs(9000 and 7000). 2. VC/unit=cost highest no. of products-cost of lowest no. of products/highest no. of products- lowest no. of product 3. VC/unit=9000-7000/400-200 =2000/200 =10


Explain why the AVC and ATC move closer together as output expands?

As output expands, fixed costs are spread out over a larger quantity of output, causing average fixed cost (AFC) to decrease. Since average total cost (ATC) is the sum of average variable cost (AVC) and AFC, and AFC is decreasing, ATC will also decrease. However, AVC tends to decrease at a slower rate than AFC, so the gap between AVC and ATC narrows as output expands.

What is cost What is the difference between total cost and average cost?

Average total cost is the average of all your costs. This is your Fixed Costs and your Variable costs. Average Variable Cost is the average of your costs that can fluctuate.


When the marginal cost is less than the average variable cost the average variable cost will?

decrease. Think about it this way, if you have a room full of people and you get their average height(average variable cost), and now each person that walks into the room(marginal cost) is shorter than the average, the average will drop.


What is the difference between average total costs and average variable costs?

Average total cost is the average of all your costs. This is your Fixed Costs and your Variable costs. Average Variable Cost is the average of your costs that can fluctuate.
