Respuesta :

Answer:

Firm should be shut down in short run

Explanation:

We have given price of output = $15

Total economic cost = $650000

Total number of units for maximizing profit level = 40000

So average economic cost [tex]=\frac{650000}{40000}=$16.25[/tex]

As the average economic cost is greater than price of the output

So firm should be shut down in short run

Answer will be firm should be shut down in short run
