If the marginal cost (MC) of production of the company is directly proportional to the number of units (x) produced, then find the total cost function, when the fixed cost is ₹ 5,000 and the cost of producing 50 units is ₹ 5,625

उत्तर
M.C αx
M.C = λx
fixed cost k = ₹ 5000
Cost function C = `int ("M.C") "d"x`
= `int lambdax "d"x`
C = `(lambdax^2)/2 + "k"`
⇒ C = `lambda (x^2/2) + 5000` ........(1)
When x = 50 then C = 5625
5625 = `(lambda(50)^2)/2 + 5000`
5625 – 5000 = `(lambda(2500))/2 = 1250 lambda`
`1250 lambda = 625`
⇒ `lambda = 625/1250 = 1/2`
∴ Required total cost function from equation (1)
C = `1/2(x^2/2) + 5000`
∴ C = `x^2/4 + 5000`
