Answer to Question 2

The short run is any amount of time in which at least one resource is fixed. In the short run there are some fixed costs. In the long run, nothing is fixed. There are no fixed costs in the long run. Costs of production vary with output in the short run because of increasing and diminishing returns. Costs of production vary with output in the long run because of economies and diseconomies of scale.
