B Correct answer
Explanation

In the long run, all inputs are variable. The statement that all inputs are fixed in the long run is incorrect; that condition applies to the very short period or is simply false by definition.

In the long run there is enough time for the firm to cover its losses and earn normal profits. This is because in the long run, all inputs are __________.

  1. identical

  2. homogenous

  3. variable

  4. fixed
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

In the long run, firms have sufficient time to adjust all factors of production, meaning all inputs become variable. This flexibility allows firms to optimize their scale of operations.

  2. the market period

  3. the long period

  4. all of the above.

C Correct answer
Explanation

The long period is defined as a time frame long enough for a firm to change its plant capacity, which involves adjusting fixed factors like capital and machinery.

In the case of very short period ______ is variable.

  1. land

  2. capital

  3. labour

  4. none of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

In the very short period (market period), the supply is fixed because there is no time to adjust any factors of production. Therefore, none of the listed factors (land, capital, labour) are variable.

In short run when the level of production increases, average fixed cost will____.

  1. remain same

  2. decrease

  3. increase

  4. all the three possible depending upon the merit of case

B Correct answer
Explanation
The AFC curve is asymptotic to to both the x and y axis as the fixed cost can never be 0 since fixed cost is positive. It slopes downwards throughout its length from left to right showing continuous fall in average fixed cost with an increase in output.

Which of these statement is more appropriate for Fixed costs ____________?

  1. Fixed cost is fixed only in short run

  2. It is fixed in long run also

  3. It varies with the change in level of output

  4. It is strictly avoidable in short run also
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Fixed costs are defined by their inability to change with the level of output in the short run. In the long run, all costs become variable as the firm can adjust its scale.
