A grаph in the first quаdrаnt is shоwn with price оn the vertical axis and quantity оn the horizontal axis. The values 10 dollars, 15 dollars, and 20 dollars are labeled on the vertical axis near the center, and the value 10 is labeled on the horizontal axis near the left. Two lines are plotted starting on the vertical axis above the price 20 dollars and decreasing to the right. The upper line is labeled demand, and the lower line is labeled marginal revenue. Two curves are also drawn that are concave up everywhere but start decreasing, reach a minimum, and then increase. The upper curve is labeled average total cost. Its minimum is between the demand and marginal cost lines below the price 15 dollars and to the right of the quantity 10. To the left it passes through the quantity 10 and price 15 dollars, then crosses the marginal revenue line at price 20 dollars. The lower curve is labeled marginal cost. Its minimum is below price 10 dollars and to the left of quantity 10. It increases to the right, crossing the marginal revenue line at quantity 10 and price 10 dollars, crossing the average total cost curve at its minimum, and crossing the demand curve above where the average total cost curve crosses the demand line. Dashed reference lines are drawn from each value. The vertical reference line at quantity 10 crosses through the intersection of the marginal revenue line and the marginal cost curve, crosses the average total cost curve to the left of its minimum at price 15 dollars, and then ends at the demand curve at price 20 dollars. The horizontal reference line at 10 dollars ends at the intersection of the marginal revenue line and the marginal cost curve, at 15 dollars ends at the intersection of the average total cost curve and the vertical reference line, and at 20 dollars ends at the intersection of the demand curve and the vertical reference line. Which of the following is most likely to occur if the firm increases production beyond 10 units?

"Vulnerability" by David Whyte Vulnerability is not a weakness, a passing indisposition, or something we can arrange to do without, vulnerability is not a choice, vulnerability is the underlying, ever present and abiding undercurrent of our natural state. To run from vulnerability is to run from the essence of our nature, the attempt to be invulnerable is the vain attempt to become something we are not and most especially, to close off our understanding of the grief of others. More seriously, in refusing our vulnerability we refuse the help needed at every turn of our existence and immobilize the essential, tidal and conversational foundations of our identity. To have a temporary, isolated sense of power over all events and circumstances, is a lovely illusionary privilege and perhaps the prime and most beautifully constructed conceit of being human and especially of being youthfully human, but it is a privilege that must be surrendered with that same youth, with ill health, with accident, with the loss of loved ones who do not share our untouchable powers; powers eventually and most emphatically given up, as we approach our last breath. The only choice we have as we mature is how we inhabit our vulnerability, how we become larger and more courageous and more compassionate through our intimacy with disappearance, our choice is to inhabit vulnerability as generous citizens of loss, robustly and fully, or conversely, as misers and complainers, reluctant and fearful, always at the gates of existence, but never bravely and completely attempting to enter, never wanting to risk ourselves, never walking fully through the door.
