MP = marginal product
AP = average product ,

TFC = total fixed cost

TVC = total variable cost

TC = total cost
AFC = Average fixed cost

AVC = average variable cost

ATC = Average total cost

MC = marginal cost

3)  A monopolist can produce its output at a constant average and constant marginal cost of:

ATC = MC = 5

The monopoly faces a demand curve given by the following function:

Q= 53-P

And a marginal revenue curve that is given by the function:

MR = 53 - 2Q
