Question

The weekly total cost function associated with manufacturing the Pulsar 25 color console television is given by  . What is the marginal average cost function  ?

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The marginal average cost function is the derivative of the average cost function. We can find the average cost function by dividing the total cost function by the quantity, so:
AC = (TC/Q) = (11Q^3 + 2000) / Q = 11Q^2 + 2000/Q
Then, taking the derivative, we get:
MAC = d/dQ (AC) = 22Q - 2000/Q^2
So the answer is B, 11eaa8b1_dbe9_2973_b1b6_ade1ab118c95_TB6026_11.
