Answer:

The answer is option (c) $1.71

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

Doreenas Dairy produced =7000 pounds (Q)

Each pounds was sold for =$6

The incurred variable costs (vc) =$28,000

Total cost (Tc)= $40,000

Now we find the he firm's average fixed cost

Thus,

Fixed cost =Total cost (Tc) - Incurred variable cost  (vc)

= $40,000 - $28,0000

=12,000

So, the average fixed costs (AFC) =FC/Q

=12,000/7000

=$1.714

Therefore the  average fixed cost of the firm is $1.71
