AVC = ATC
We know that,
TC=TFC+TVC
Dividing both the sides by 'Q', we get
Hence, TC/Q = TFC/Q + TVC/Q [.'.TFC = 0]
ATC = AVC
Graphically, both the cost curves will intersect each other....
The relationship between AC and MC is explained with the help of the following schedule:

(i) So long AC is falling, AC is greater than MC.
(ii) When AC is rising, AC...
