Law of Diminishing Returns
... B. The marginal product is the additional production from one additional unit of input. C. There are often diminishing marginal returns to additional inputs, which means the cost of the additional inputs may not be worth the end result. For example, when you are studying, you are likely to learn the ...

... A fixed cost is a cost that does not change, regardless of how much of a good is produced. Examples: rent and salaries Variable costs are costs that rise or fall depending on how much is produced. Examples: costs of raw materials, some labor costs. The total cost equals fixed costs plus variable cos ...
