This means that the firm cannot change its plant size, equipment, or the number of workers it employs. In the market period, the firm can only change its output by varying the amount of variable inputs it uses.<\/p>\n<p>The figure shows the short-run average cost (SRAC) and short-run marginal cost (SRMC) curves of a firm. The SRAC curve is U-shaped because of the law of diminishing returns. The SRMC curve cuts the SRAC curve at its minimum point.
