Average Variable Cost Curve

The Average Variable Cost Curve graphically represents how a firm's variable costs (costs that change with the level of output) per unit of output change as the firm alters its level of production.

Fixed Costs

Costs that do not change with the level of production or sales, such as rent, salaries, and insurance premiums.

Marginal Cost Curve
