O Levels Economics (2281)•2281/11/M/J/24
Question 14 from 2281/11/M/J/24

Explanation

Average fixed cost calculation

Steps:

  • Calculate total fixed cost: Total cost - Total variable cost = 10,000−10,000 - 10,000−8,000 = $2,000.
  • Divide total fixed cost by quantity: 2,000/10=2,000 / 10 = 2,000/10=200.

Why A is correct:

  • Average fixed cost is total fixed cost divided by output quantity, per standard cost accounting formula (AFC = TFC / Q).

Why the others are wrong:

  • B is average variable cost (8,000/10=8,000 / 10 = 8,000/10=800).
  • C is total fixed cost ($2,000), not per unit.
  • D doubles total fixed cost without dividing by quantity.

Final answer: A

Topic: Firms' costs, revenue and objectives
