1.Cost 2.Types Of Cost 3.Cost Concept 4.Cost Curves 5.Types Of Cost Curves 6.Short-Run And Long-Run Decision Making 7.Example of cost concept

1.costs
1.Influential factor on the supply side. 2.Expenditure incurred for various factors of production. E.g: land,labour,capital,etc. 3.Renumeration paid to the factors of production for their services.

2.TYPES OF COSTS
1.VARIABLE COSTS: 2.FIXED COSTS:
These Cost Exist Whether Production Occurs Or

These Costs Exist Only If Production Occurs.

E.G:- Fuel For Tractor, Seed, Etc.

Not. In The Long-Run There Are No Fixed Costs. Can Be Both Cash And Non-Cash Expenses. E.G:- Depreciation On Tractors And Buildings, Etc.

3.COST CONCEPTS
1.Real costs:
(It refers to the actual quantities of various factors used in producing a commodity. E.g. the real cost of producing a chair is the amount of wood,nails,carpenters labour.)

2.Money cost:
(It is the cost of production expressed in terms of money. It is the money spent on various resources used in the production process.)

3.COST CONCEPTS
Implicit cost:
(It is the cost incurred by the business firms on the factors of production owned by it. E.g. own land rented to somebody and rent used for cost of production.)

COST CONCEPTS() IT IS USED TO ANALYZE TWO THINGS

1.SHORT-RUN 2.LONG-RUN

4.COST CURVES
1.Cost Curve Is A Graph Of Cost Of Production

WHAT ARE COST 3. Basic Categories:CURVES ? (A) Total cost Curves

2. Determines Profit
(B) Average cost curves

5.Types of COST CURVES

Total Fixed Costs (TFC) Total Variable Cost (TVC)

Total Cost (TC=TFC+TVC)

Average Fixed Costs (AFC) Average Variable Cost (AVC)

Average Total Cost (ATC=AFC+AVC)

Marginal Cost (MC)

6.Short-Run Decision Making

There Are Many Ways To Choose How To Produce. Profit Maximization

(Profit = TR TC.) Production Level MR = MC When MR > AVC In The ShortRun If MR AVC, we would have to shut down Why? MR = MC, we want to produce at a level where MR is as close as possible to MC, where MR > MC.

6.LONG-RUN DECISION MAKING

Course of action. Numerous aspects of the short run.

Envelope Curve.
Tangent curve. Long run planning device.

Minimum cost combinations of inputs.

6.LONG-RUN AVERAGE COST

CONCLUSION:
In this manner, We gathered knowledge regarding cost,

cost concept, cost curves in detail. In short, Cost is expenditure incurred for various factors of production. Cost concept is used to analyze two things: (a) short-run decision making. (b) long-run decision making. Cost curve is a graph of cost of production which helps to determine profit.
