The document discusses the different types of costs that firms face: fixed costs that cannot change in the short run, variable costs that change with output, and total costs which are the sum of fixed and variable costs. It also examines average costs which are total costs divided by quantity, and marginal costs which are the change in total costs from a one-unit change in output. Graphs are used to illustrate how these different cost concepts relate and form U-shaped curves over different levels of production.
Cost Curves, Introduction, Types of Costs (Accounting costs, real cost, Implicit Cost, Opportunity cost, Explicit cost, Social cost, Imputed and Sunk Cost), Types of cost curves (Short run cost function, Relationship between Total Cost, Fixed Cost and Variable Cost, Costs in Long run, Conclusion.
This revision webinar focuses on the short run costs of businesses. It includes with examples a distinction between fixed and variable costs, average, marginal and total costs and short and long run costs.
In this presentation, we will discuss in details about cost of production and various concepts of cost like fixed cost, variable cost, average cost, marginal costs, etc.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

1. The Costs of Production
• There are many different types of costs.
• Invariably, firms believe costs are too
high and try to lower them.

• In the long run there are no fixed costs
since all costs are variable.
• In the short run, a number of costs will be
