Every fourth of July, A Stitch in Time prints T-shirts for visitors to the small town of Liberty. This production process involves both fixed and variable costs. The fixed cost of printing these shirts is $10. The following table describes some of these costs. PLEASE SHOW WORK
Output | Total Variable Cost | Total Cost | Average Variable Cost | Average Total Cost | Marginal Cost |
0 | 0 | 10.00 | |||
1 | 8.00 | ||||
2 | 12.00 | ||||
3 | 28.00 | ||||
4 | 4.00 | ||||
5 | 0 | 6.40 | |||

6 | 42 | 52 | 7 | 8.66 | 10 |
7 | 54 | 64 | 7.71 | 9.14 | 12 |
Total Cost = Total Variable cost + Fixed Cost
Average Total Cost = Total Cost/Output
Average variable Cost = Total Variable Cost/Output
Marginal Cost = Total Cost at the current unit - Total Cost at the previous unit.
At 0 unit of output Total Cost = 10, Total Variable cost = 0, therefore, Total Fixed Cost = 10-0 = 10.
