Summary calculations for cost of production (updated version)

Updated: Oct 28, 2020

Updated version


Profit = TR - TC

= (P × Q) - TC

= (P × Q) - (TFC + TVC)

= (P × Q) - TFC - TVC

= (P × Q) - (ATC × Q)


TR = P × Q

= Profit + TC

= MR × Q

= AR × Q


P = TR ÷ Q

= MR or ∆TR ÷ ∆Q (Applicable under perfect competition)

= AR or TR ÷ Q

= MC or ∆TC ÷ ∆Q (Profit maximization of perfect competition)


Quantity = TR ÷ Q

= Qs = Qd (Market equilibrium)


MC = ∆TR ÷ ∆Q

= MR (maximization rule)

MR = ∆TR ÷ ∆Q

= MC (Maximization rule)

= AR (Applicable under perfect competition)


TFC = Q = 0

=TC - TVC

= AFC × Q


TVC = TC - TFC

= AVC × Q


TC = TFC + TVC

= ATC × Q

= TR - Profit


AFC = TFC ÷ Q

= ATC - AVC

= (TC - TVC) ÷ Q


AVC = TVC ÷ Q

= ATC - AFC

= (TC - TFC) ÷ Q


ATC = TC ÷ Q

= AFC + AVC

= (TFC + TVC) ÷ Q
