 The Curse of the Stripy Teapot

A Horror Story

by boby

Whilst investigating the death of a local actor, a stable gardener called bob Bloggs uncovers a legend about a supernaturally-cursed, stripy teapot circulating throughout Cornwall. As soon as anyone uses the teapot, he or she has exactly 75 days left to live.

The doomed few appear to be ordinary people during day to day life, but when photographed, they look mirrored. A marked person feels like a cosy tortoise to touch.

bob gets hold of the teapot, refusing to believe the superstition. A collage of images flash into her mind: a greasy frog balancing on a snowy actor, an old newspaper headline about a boating accident, a hooded monkey ranting about ankles and a drinking well located in a chilly place.

When bob notices her eyebrows have tortoise-like properties, she realises that the curse of the stripy teapot is true and calls in her wife, a swordsman called Susan Wu, to help.

Susan examines the teapot and willingly submits herself to the curse. She finds that the same visions flash before his eyes. She finds the greasy frog balancing on a snowy actor particularly chilling. She joins the queue for a supernatural death.

bob and Susan pursue a quest to uncover the meaning of the visions, starting with a search for the hooded monkey. Will they be able to stop the curse before their time is up?

Explanation:

marginal cost is a microeconomic measure that us to evaluate the extent to which the level of production of a good is sustainable in accounting, that is, to how many quantities the company plans to profit from the production of the good.

the concept of marginal cost is simple, it means the cost of producing one more item. for example, in the case of pies, the marginal cost is the cost of producing one more pie than those that have already been produced.

it is important to understand that productive activity influences marginal cost. the marginal cost of some goods can be very high, while others may be insignificant. for example, the marginal cost of producing an extra plane is very high. already the marginal cost of a water company to provide 1l more water is derisory.

in the case of pies, the cost involves the inputs, the labor and the fixed cost, which involves the fixed space of the bakery. the level of production initially has the marginal cost decreasing because there is space and manpower available. however, to produce more you have to hire more workers and buy more inputs. if physical space is limited, workers will conflict with places, inputs and their productivity will decrease, meaning there is an optimum point of production for each level of space and manpower. from this point on, the productivity of the workers will be getting smaller because of lack of space, so that the marginal cost of producing one more pie will be increasing. so, although you have not posted the chart, but if you have the answer, you can see that my explanation goes according to the marginal cost curve that will increase from the 4th pie, answer (c).
