Best answer

AFC falls, when output is increased. Since, the Total Fixed Cost remains the same with changes in output, therefore, AFC falls steadily with increase in output. AFC curve is downward sloping.

AFC = TFC/Q

Units (Q) TFC AFC (Rs.)
0 100 00
1 100 100
2 100 50
3 100 33.3
4 100 25
5 100 20
6 100 16.67
7 100 14.2
8 100 12.5
9 100 11.1
10 100 10
