What to Focus On

  • Cost means money expenditure incurred by the producer for production.
  • Land is a fixed factor of production.
  • Labour is a variable factor of production.

  • Fixed cost does not change with output.
  • Variable cost changes with output.
  • Explicit cost includes payments for fixed factors, variable factors, and raw materials.

  • Total cost is the sum of fixed cost and variable cost.
  • Average cost is cost per unit of output.
  • Marginal cost is the change in total cost for one extra unit of output.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Rent paid for land is a variable cost because it is an expense in production.

Rent paid for a tractor is always a fixed cost, even when the farmer uses his own tractor.

Explicit cost means only wages and other variable expenses.
