The numbers of units produced by a firm and the corresponding costs are tabulated below.

Assuming constant variable cost per unit, calculate the AFC for 100 units.
Rs 10
Let the fixed cost be F and the variable cost per unit be v.
F +100 v = Rs 2000
F + 250 v = Rs 3500
On solving, we get F = 1000 =TFC and v = 10 = AVC
Now, AFC = TFC / 10 = 1000/100 = Rs 10
