marginal cost function cost of production, the following properties are valid for
total cost functions.
1. The total cost can never be negative. If there are fixed
costs, the cost of producing 0 units is positive; otherwise,
the cost of producing 0 units is 0.
2. The total cost function is always increasing; the more
units produced, the higher the total cost. Thus the
marginal cost is always positive.

Total Cost and Profit Total Cost and Profit


We know that the marginal cost for a commodity is the
derivative of the total cost function— that is,
where C(x) is the total cost function.
Thus if we have the marginal cost function, we can
integrate (or “reverse” the process of differentiation) to where K represents the constant of integration. We
find the total cost. That is, know that the total revenue is 0 if no items are
produced, but the total cost may not be 0 if nothing is
produced.
If, for example, the marginal cost is 𝑀𝐶 = 4𝑥 + 3, the
total cost is given by The fixed costs accrue whether goods are produced or
not. Thus the value of the constant of integration
depends on the fixed costs FC of production.

Integration by Parts Integration by Parts


Integration by parts is an integration technique that
uses a formula that follows from the Product Rule Integration by Parts Formula
for derivatives (actually differentials) as follows:

Rearranging the differential form and integrating


both sides give the following.

Example 8 – Integration by Parts Integration by Parts


How can we select u and dv to make integration by parts
Evaluate work? As a general guideline, we do the following.

First identify the types of functions occurring in the problem in


the order
Logarithm, Polynomial (or Power of x), Radical, Exponential
Thus, in Example 1, we had x and ex, a polynomial and an
exponential.

Second, choose u to equal the function whose type occurs first


on the list; hence in Example 1 we chose u = x.

Integration by Parts Ex.9 – A Tricky Integration by Parts

Then dv equals the rest of the integrand (and always Evaluate


includes dx) so that u dv equals the original
integrand.

The most obvious choices for u and dv are not always


the correct ones, as the next example shows.
Integration by parts may still involve some trial and
error.

The second of these integrals can be evaluated by


using integration by parts, with u = t and dv = e–0.08t
dt. Thus the sum of the integrals is
Then du = 1 dt and and this integral is
so the present value of this piece of equipment is
$1,990,325.81.
