Production
- The first unit of this lesson, Short-Run Production, begins our study by introducing a few basic concepts underlying production, especially short run, long run, fixed input, and variable input.
- In the second unit, Production Measures, we take a look the three standard measures of production -- total product, average product, and marginal product.
- The third unit, Product Curves, then presents graphical relations for these three measures -- total product curve, average product curve, and marginal product curve.
- In the fourth unit, Long-Run Production, we examine the role returns to scale play in long-run production.
- The fifth and final unit, Supply, then closes this lesson by previewing the importance of production to the supply decisions by firms.s

AVERAGE FACTOR COST, PERFECT COMPETITION Total factor cost per unit of factor input employed by a perfectly competitive firm in the production of output, found by dividing total factor cost by the quantity of factor input. Average factor cost, abbreviated AFC, is generally equal to the factor price. However, using the longer term average factor cost makes it easier to see the connection to related terms, including total factor cost and marginal factor cost.
