Cost Patterns Differ Across Industries
Captions available
The idea
Some industries have high fixed and low marginal costs, others the reverse, and some hit diminishing returns sharply; the curves differ, and so do the decisions they drive.
In practice
A website costs much to build and little per visitor; leaf raking is all labor.
Where people slip
The same tools read every pattern; where the curves sit decides the firm count, video five thirty-nine.
