Fully explain why the marginal cost of one good is actually the marginal benefit of the good that is given when that good is produced.
Homework Answers
The marginal benefit is a decreasing curve and the marginal cost is an increasing which is a known fact and therefore as we keep on producing the marginal benefit would be more than marginal cost so that the net benefit keeps on increasing and at a point where you meet the net benefit would be maximum and after that point of production the marginal cost would be more than that of marginal benefit as a result of which the net benefit decreases from that point and that is the reason why the maximum net benefit occurs at a point where the marginal benefit equals the marginal cost and therefore whenever a good is produced it is produced in such a way that the marginal cost is equal to the marginal benefit so that the net benefit is maximum
