1) Go to LMS and download this short 12 minute video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBQVaRnHqLs

The link has also been sent to your email address and if you have any problems viewing it make sure you check with your friends or your teacher.

2) The video explains how different costs behave and relate to each other. After you have watched the video, fill in the missing information in the table below which describe the short run costs of an imaginary firm.

Output	TFC	TVC	TC	AFC	AVC	AC	MC

9		48				6.44

10		70

3) After you have completed the table above, use the information to draw/plot the Average Fixed Cost (AFC), Average Variable Cost (AVC), Average Cost (AC) and the Marginal Cost (MC) in the graph below.

Note that e.g. MC of 4 is inserted in between output of 1 and 2. The other MC's should similarly be inserted in between whole output numbers e.g. MC of 5 is inserted bewteen output of 6 and 7 for greater accuracy.
