1. A perfectly competitive firm, Frodo’s Messenger Service, delivers important documents using bicycle messengers in Kuwait. Labor is the only variable input and costs 150KD/worker per day. Calculate each total and average cost measure for the nine different labor/delivery combinations shown in the table. Complete the total revenue (TR) and profit columns using the number in the column as the price of delivery. For example the column showing TR 2.000 means total revenue with each delivery priced at 2.000 KD. Total fixed costs are 300KD/day.
