Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the definition of Average Variable Cost (AVC), which is the variable cost per unit of output produced.
Recall the formula for AVC: \(\text{AVC} = \frac{\text{Total Variable Cost}}{\text{Quantity of Output}}\).
From the problem, note that the quantity of output is 400 units, so substitute this value into the denominator of the formula.
Locate the Total Variable Cost corresponding to producing 400 units from the given table or data.
Divide the Total Variable Cost by 400 to calculate the Average Variable Cost for producing 400 units.
