ANSWERS:

Question 4:
C(Q) = 100 + 20Q + 15Q2 + 10Q3

a) Fixed cost of producing 10 units of output
FC= $100

b) Variabe cost of producing 10 Units is:
VC = 20(10) + 15(10)2 + 10(10)3
= 200 + 1500 + 10000
= $11700

c) Total Cost of producing 10 Units = VC + FC
= 11700+ 100
= $11800

d) Average FC of producing 10 units = FC/ 10
= 100/10 = 10

e) Average VC of producing 10 units = VC/ 10
= 11700/10 = 1170

f) Average TC of producing 10 units = TC/ 10
= 11800/10 = 1180

g) Marginal cost
MC(Q) = 20 + 30Q + 30Q2
MC(10)= 20 + 300 + 3000
= $3320
