The Institute for Supply Management's manufacturing purchasing managers index for May fell to 48.7 from 49.2 in April. The factory sector has been under pressure for well over a year, with ISM's ...
The total cost curve, if non-linear, can represent increasing and diminishing marginal returns.. The short-run total cost (SRTC) and long-run total cost (LRTC) curves are increasing in the quantity of output produced because producing more output requires more labor usage in both the short and long runs, and because in the long run producing more output involves using more of the physical ...
Ex-TAC gross profit was $68.3 million, an increase of 7% year over year, continuing the trend of acceleration and outpacing revenue for the seventh quarter in a row, driven primarily by net ...
