Core Assumptions for the Beautiful Cars Model
Connecting Cost Assumptions to Curve Shapes
An economic model for a firm is built on the assumption of a total fixed cost of 14,400 for each unit produced. Based only on these two assumptions, describe the shape of the firm's Marginal Cost (MC) curve and its Average Fixed Cost (AFC) curve as the quantity of output increases. Justify your description for each curve.

Linear Cost Function for Beautiful Cars
Inverse Demand Function for Beautiful Cars (Linear Model)
An economic model of a firm is based on the following assumptions: 1) There are 100 potential consumers in the market, and each will buy at most one unit of the product if the price is low enough. 2) The firm incurs a total fixed cost of 14,400 for every unit it produces. Based on these assumptions, what can be deduced about the firm's demand and cost structures?
Effect of Changing Cost Assumptions
Evaluating a Marketing Strategy
Consider an economic model of a firm where total fixed costs are 14,400. In this model, the average cost per unit when producing a total of 10 units is lower than the average cost per unit when producing a total of 20 units.
Critique of Simplifying Assumptions in an Economic Model
An economic model is built on several key assumptions about a firm's costs and the market demand it faces. Match each economic term below with its correct description or value as defined by the model's assumptions.
An economic model of a firm assumes total fixed costs are 14,400. Based on this model, the total cost of producing exactly 5 units is $____.
Connecting Cost Assumptions to Curve Shapes
An economic model for a firm producing a specialized product is based on the assumption that there are 100 potential consumers in the market, and each is willing to purchase one unit. If a successful advertising campaign increases the pool of potential consumers to 150, what is the most direct consequence for the firm's demand curve, assuming all other factors remain constant?
