    Thanks for this excellent and straightforward explanation. As someone who isn't here for economics but for calculus, this was very didactic, I even want to continue learning about this topic, haha. Good luck to all Microeconomics students. 📚

    As a non native english speaker who is studying economics, I need someone to describe to me what units mean. I actually searched for it, I found that it means an item manufactured. then is it equal to goods in terms of Economics?

    • @tutor2u-official
      @tutor2u-official  Před rokem +3

      Units means how much of something has been produced

    what happend if price below the marginal cost?

  • @johnpaulong5603
    @johnpaulong5603 Před 3 lety +3

    Can I ask if can marginal cost decrease? Or marginal costs should constantly increase?

    • @tutor2u-official
      @tutor2u-official  Před 3 lety +2

      Both are possible - it depends on the nature of production. Drawing a linear (straight-line) supply curve suggests that marginal costs are rising but it is not inevitable. In many industries such as mass production manufacturing, the marginal cost is constant.

    So this implies that
    MC= Current Total Cost - Previous Total Cost/ Current unit - previous unit

    what is the difference between variable and marginal costing?

    • @tutor2u-official
      @tutor2u-official  Před 2 lety +1

      Variable cost is cost that depends on output, marginal cost is the cost of producing the next unit of output

    How if there is only price instead of total cost? Can we calculate the MC

    • @tutor2u-official
      @tutor2u-official  Před 2 lety +1

      Total cost is the area underneath the marginal cost curve

    Why does MC equal Supply?

    • @tutor2u-official
      @tutor2u-official  Před 2 lety

      Because the supply curve is essentially the cost of producing extra units - which is also the idea of marginal cost
