Q5.         Explain how a product would reach equilibrium position with the help  of –iso-quants and is-cost curve.

 

Answer : When producing a good or service, how do suppliers determine the quantity of factors to hire? Below, we work through an example where a representative producer answers this question. Let‘s begin by making some assumptions. First, we shall assume that our producer chooses varying amounts of two factors, capital (K) and labor (L). Each factor was a price that does not vary with output. That is, the price of each unit of labor (w) and

 

 

 

Q6.         Explain cost output relationship with reference to:

 

a.            Total fixed cost and output

 

Answer : Total fixed cost and output:

 

TFC refers to total money expenses incurred on fixed inputs like plant, machinery, tools & equipments in the short run. Total fixed cost corresponds to the fixed inputs in the short run production function. TFC remains the same at all levels of output in the short run. It is the same when output is nil. It indicates that whatever may be the quantity of output, whether 1 to 6 units, TFC remains constant. The TFC curve is horizontal

 

 

 

 

 

b.            Total variable cost  and output

 

Answer : Total variable cost and output:

 

TVC refers to total money expenses incurred on the variable factor inputs like raw materials, power, fuel, water, transport and communication etc, in the short run. Total variable cost corresponds to variable inputs in the short run production function. It is obtained by summing up the production of quantities of variable inputs multiplied by their prices. The formula to calculate TVC is as follows. TVC = TC-TFC. TVC = f (Q) i.e. TVC is an increasing function
