Q TC TFC TVC AC AFC AVC MC
0 120 [A] [B] - - - -
1 [C] [D] [E] 265 [F] [G] [H]

2) Consider the following cost equation: Total Cost (TC) = 160Q -10Q2 + 1.2Q3. What is Total Cost when the Quantity is 20?

AC = 160Q - 10Q + 1.2Q
AC = 80Q - 5Q2 + 0.6Q3
AC = 53.3Q - 3.3Q2 + 0.4Q3

4) What is the Marginal Cost of producing the 21st unit? (Hint: Begin by calculating TC at 20 and at 21.)
