Thus average fixed cost is the fixed cost per unit of output. Suppose for a firm the total fixed cost is Rs. 2,000 when output is 100 units, average fixed cost (AFC) will be Rs. 2,000/100 = Rs. 20 and when output is expanded to 200 units, average fixed cost will be Rs. 2,000/200 = Rs.
On July 3, 1886, mechanical engineer Karl Benz drove the first automobile in Mannheim, Germany, reaching a top speed of 16 km/h (10 mph). The automobile was powered by a 0.75-hp one-cylinder four-stroke gasoline engine.
By 1901, Germany was producing about 900 cars a year. In 1926, Daimler-Benz was formed from the predecessor companies of Karl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler and produced cars under the marque of Mercedes-Benz. In 1916 BMW was founded, but didn't start auto production until 1928.utomobile manufacturers in East Germany after the war included Eisenacher Motorenwerk (EMW), which also made the Wartburg (car) , and VEB Sachsenring Automobilwerke Zwickau, which made the IFA F8 (derived from the DKW F8) and the Trabant.
