Explainthe relationship between the average cost and marginal cost curve? Answer: We usually assume that the Average Cost curve is U shaped The MC curve will intercept the AC curves at its minimum point. When AC is decreasing‚ MC lies below AC - because when MC is below AC‚ producing an extra unit of output will pull down average cots When AC is increasing‚ MC lies above AC - because when MC is above AC‚ producing an extra unit of output will raise average costs Therefore MC will intercept the AC curve

is a part of: B. Conversion cost. Labor that cannot be physically traced to particular product is treated as indirect labor and as manufacturing overhead.

The two types of cost estimating techniques that I am going to compare and contrast are parametric procedures applied to specific tasks and phase estimating. These two techniques are a part of bottom-up approaches but apply processes from top-down approaches. They both use techniques that allow for estimating projects by breaking down into sections. In comparison the parametric procedures breaks the projects down into specific tasks and the phase estimation breaks the projects down in a time line
