a. Given his current output level, compute his marginal cost $ ..... and average cost is $ ...
Marginal cost = (2 hours to cut a lawn $20 per hour)
Marginal cost= (2 $20)
Marginal cost= $40
Average cost = (total cost) / (Number of units)
Average cost = {(100 lawns $40) + ($20,000 0.10)}/ 100
Average cost = $6,000 / 100
Average cost = $60
