Accountants work with average costs for convenience but plainly the cost will decrease as larger numbers of an item are produced……there is an economy of scale.At a certain point costs begin to increase again because of the inefficiency of larger organisations.

There will come a point when there is a minimum cost and either side of that minimum costs will increase.

Economists are interested in marginal costs and in achieving cost minimisation in an item or a service.
