Average Fixed Cost (AFC) Calculator

Spread total fixed cost across output to get the average fixed cost per unit (AFC).

輸入資料

Costs paid regardless of output (rent, insurance, fixed salaries).
HK$
Units produced or sold in the period.

計算結果

Fixed cost allocated per unit.
HK$50

重點速覽:AFC = total fixed cost / quantity. Fixed costs (rent, insurance, depreciation, fixed salaries) do not vary with output, so the more units produced, the lower the per-unit fixed cost — the source of economies of scale. AFC is only part of unit cost; add AVC for the full picture (ATC = AFC + AVC).

計算公式

平均固定成本 = 總固定成本 ÷ 產量。

$$AFC = \dfrac{\text{總固定成本 (TFC)}}{\text{產量 (Q)}}$$
$$ATC = AFC + AVC \quad (\text{每單位總成本} = \text{平均固定成本} + \text{平均可變成本})$$

使用說明

  1. Enter the total fixed cost (unchanged by output).
  2. Enter the output quantity.
  3. View the average fixed cost per unit.

理財情境案例

案例一:算出每件的平均固定成本

某工場每月固定成本 HK$500,000 (租金、牌照、保險、固定薪金與折舊),月產 10,000 件。AFC = 500,000 ÷ 10,000 = HK$50 / 件。

這 HK$50 是每件產品要背負的固定成本;若當月產量下滑,這個數字會隨即上升,令成本結構承壓。

案例二:產量翻倍對成本的影響

同一工場若把月產量由 10,000 件提升到 20,000 件 (產能足夠、不需加租),AFC 由 HK$50 降至 500,000 ÷ 20,000 = HK$25 / 件,每件省下 HK$25 固定成本。

但要注意:一旦產量超出現有產能、需加租多開一條線,固定成本會『跳升』到新水平,AFC 曲線會出現階梯式回升,並非無限下降。

常見問題

Why does higher output lower AFC?

Because the fixed-cost total stays the same but is spread over more units, so per-unit fixed cost keeps falling — economies of scale. At low output each unit bears a heavy fixed cost, stressing cost structure and pricing.

Is AFC the unit cost?

No. Unit total cost = AFC + AVC. This calculator covers fixed cost only; add per-unit variable cost (materials, packaging, piece wages) for the full unit cost before pricing and profit decisions.

What counts as fixed cost?

Costs paid no matter how much you sell — rent, licence fees, insurance, fixed salaries, equipment depreciation, loan interest. They stay constant within a capacity range; expanding capacity (e.g. renting another shop) steps fixed cost up to a new level.

How do AFC, AVC and ATC relate?

AFC is fixed cost per unit (falls with output); AVC is variable cost per unit (usually U-shaped); ATC = AFC + AVC is the full average unit cost. Because AFC keeps falling, ATC is pulled down at low output and pushed up by AVC at high output, so ATC is also U-shaped. Price off ATC plus target profit as the long-run floor, not AFC or AVC alone.

Why does the AFC curve never hit zero?

Mathematically AFC = fixed cost / quantity, so it approaches but never reaches zero (fixed cost stays positive). Also the decline is not perfectly smooth: fixed cost is constant only within a 'relevant range'; once output exceeds capacity and you expand (new premises, more managers), fixed cost steps up and AFC rebounds before falling again. So the real AFC curve is a series of downward steps, not one smooth line.
