Suppose Kate's Great Crete (KGC) has annual variable costs of VC = 30Q + 0.0025Q2 and marginal costs of MC = 30 + 0.005Q, where Q is the number of cubic yards of concrete it produces per year. In addition, it has an avoidable fixed cost of $50,000 per year. KGC's demand function is Qd = 20,000 - 400P. What is KGC's average cost function?

A. AC = (50,000/Q) + 50 + 0.005Q

B. AC = (20,000/Q) + 30 + 0.005Q

C. AC = (50,000/Q) + 30 + 0.0025Q

D. AC = 50,000 + 30Q + 0.0025Q2


C. AC = (50,000/Q) + 30 + 0.0025Q
