Cost Curves and How They Relate to Each Other That is, the long-run curve is the proper envelope of the short-run curves and the average and marginal curves (both long-run and short-run) are consistent. When the average value involves a linear relationship, the representation is simple: the marginal curve is half the horizontal distance to the average curve. These are the quantity at which the long-run cost curve is minimized and the long-run average cost at that quantity. csob.berry.edu /faculty/economics/CostCurves/CostCurves.htm   (1837 words)

Avg Cost Computations The average cost per share is not rounded in any way (though it is displayed with 2 decimal accuracy).

Average cost - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In economics, average cost is equal to total cost divided by the number of goods produced (Quantity-Q). It is also equal to the sum of average variable costs (total variable costs divided by Q) plus average fixed costs (total fixed costs divided by Q). An increasing marginal cost curve will intersect a U-shaped average cost curve at its minimum, after which point the average cost curve begins to slope upward. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Average_cost   (191 words)
