Answer: $2518.33

Explanation:

Given: Total cost (TC) = $50000

Quantity (Q) = 15 tons

Average variable cost (AVC) =  $815

To find : average fixed cost (AFC)

Since, TC = FC + VC

[tex]\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{TC}{Q}=\dfrac{FC+VC}{Q}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{50000}{15}=\dfrac{FC}{Q}+\dfrac{VC}{Q}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{50000}{15}=AFC+AVC\\\\\Rightarrow\ AFC= \dfrac{50000}{15} - AVC\\\\\Rightarrow\ AFC= \dfrac{50000}{15} - 815\\\\=3333.33- 815=\$2518.33[/tex]

Hence, firm's average fixed cost= $2518.33
