What is Understanding Short-Run Cost Decisions about?
The theory of cost is important for managers to make two key production decisions: whether to shut down or how much to produce. Costs in the short run include fixed and variable costs. In the long run, all costs are variable and firms experience economies of scale as long-run average costs decrease with increasing output. However, beyond a certain scale diseconomies may occur. Firms also benefit from economies of scope by jointly producing related products at lower unit costs than separate production.
