Short Answer

Solution

  • The marginal cost (MC) curve cuts both the Average Variable Cost (AVC) curve, and Average Cost (AC) curve at their minimum points. 
  • Because when MC = AVC or MC = AC, it means the average is neither rising nor falling, it is at its lowest (minimum) point. That's where the MC curve intersects them.
