a.There are some fixed costs.That can happen only in the short run.
d.See the following diagram.Note that marginal curves are drawn halfway between the quantity
values.
e.The two levels are the same.At that output level , the extra worker is the most productive of all, so
the extra hiring cost is spread over the largest number of extra units.

a.$4,30
b.Ken’s total fixed cost includes any cost that are present when output is zero,therefore,total fixed
cost equals $5000
d.If output is 200, marginal cost is $2,70. Because the price is $4,30, the marginal revenue is alo
$4,30. Because marginal cost is less than marginal revenue , Ken should increase output. In fact , the
profit maximizing output level is 600.
f.This change is Ken’s costs will not affect the profit maximizing output level. Rent is a fixed cost,
which ,therefore,does not influence marginal cost.

4.TVC=TC-TFC=6000-2000=4000
q=TC/ATC=20
AVC=4000/20=200

d.The firm should produce three units for total profit of $10.
f.There should be an increase in the number of firms in the long run.Supply will shift to the right ,
making the market price fall.
g.When pice is $20, the profit max outpt level is 2 units ; at $40 , it’s 4;at $50, it’s 5; and at $60 it’s 6.
