The difference narrows. ATC is the sum of AVC and AFC.. Since AFC declines steadily as output rises, the difference between ATC and AVC must narrow steadily.
The marginal cost (MC) curve intersects the average variable cost (AVC) curve at the minimum point of the AVC curve.

Marginal Cost will keep increasing (have upward slope) because of the principle of diminishing marginal returns. The MC curve above the its intersection with AVC is the Supply Curve *because below minimum AVC, the firms stops production)
When AP rises AVC falls
The Marginal Cost (MC) curve intersects both the Average Variable Cost (AVC) and Average Total Cost (ATC) curves from below because when MC is less than AVC or ATC, it pulls the average down as additional units are produced. When MC equals AVC or ATC, it indicates that the cost of producing one more unit is exactly equal to the average cost, at which point the average costs are at their minimum. Thus, the intersection occurs at the lowest point of the AVC and ATC curves, illustrating the relationship between marginal and average costs.
The difference narrows. ATC is the sum of AVC and AFC.. Since AFC declines steadily as output rises, the difference between ATC and AVC must narrow steadily.
AVC=AC-AFC,the AVC curve is simply the vertical difference between the AC and AFC curve, AFC gets less, the gap between AVC andAC narrows.since all marginal costs are variable ,the same relationship holds between MC and AVC as it did between MC and AC ,that is ,when MC is less than AVC ,it must be falling, if MC is greater than AVC .it must be rising, so ,as with the AC curve ,the MC curve crosses the AVC curve at its minimum point
The marginal cost (MC) curve intersects the average variable cost (AVC) curve at the minimum point of the AVC curve.
As output expands, fixed costs are spread out over a larger quantity of output, causing average fixed cost (AFC) to decrease. Since average total cost (ATC) is the sum of average variable cost (AVC) and AFC, and AFC is decreasing, ATC will also decrease. However, AVC tends to decrease at a slower rate than AFC, so the gap between AVC and ATC narrows as output expands.

No. But: ATC = AVC + AFC Or TC = VC + FC
Marginal Cost will keep increasing (have upward slope) because of the principle of diminishing marginal returns. The MC curve above the its intersection with AVC is the Supply Curve *because below minimum AVC, the firms stops production)
The Average Total Cost (ATC) curve is above the Average Variable Cost (AVC) curve because the ATC is composed of the AVC and the AFC (average fixed cost curve). The AVC curve starts out low at low levels of output, and eventually, as more of the variable unit is added, AVC begins to slop upward. Conversely, AFC starts out higher, but as more units are produced, the fixed costs are spread out over more units so the AFC curve is actually a downward sloping straight line. When you add the AVC and AFC at each level of production and graph the result, you are given the ATC line which is a U-shaped curve above the AFC & AVC. An example of VC would be labor. In the short-run where plant size is fixed, in order to produce more units, you would have to hire more labor. As you add workers, you will initially see a productivity gain, but as more and more workers are added, their marginal output will fall. FC is simple. Suppose you have a factory that costs you $100/year to operate. If you produce only 1 unit that year, your fixed costs are spread out over the single unit, so $100 AFC. Now suppose you up production to 3 units and AFC falls to $33.34/unit. Go even further and produce 25 units and now AFC is $4/unit. Graph this line. The sum of these 2 curves, AVC & AFC, equals ATC.
