Q. When the output is equal to zero, what is the variable cost?
Answer: zero
Notes: Variable costs are those costs that vary with the level of output. When output is zero, variable costs are zero, but as output increases, variable costs increase. This continues to grow to the point that economies of scale can no longer reduce the cost per unit, hence the heavy fallout.
