|
| 38. | Thus the firm's long-run supply curve is the long run marginal cost curve above the minimum point of the long run average cost curve.
|
| 39. | If the modeller has access to the details of non-linear cost curves then " w " will need to be defined by the appropriate function.
|
| 40. | The operating costs were viewed as being in the lower part of the cost curve and be able to handle drops in the zinc price.
