Assume that in the short run a firm is producing 500 units of output, has average total costs of $300, and has average variable costs of $220. The firm's total fixed costs are. Select one: a. $40,000. b. $6.25. c. $0.16. d. $80.

Answer:

Total fixed costs= $40,000

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the total variable cost and total cost:

Total cost= 500*300= $150,000

Total variable cost= 500*220= $110,000

Now, we can calculate the total fixed costs:

Total fixed costs= total cost - total variable cost

Total fixed costs= 150,000 - 110,000

Total fixed costs= $40,000
