In this short video we work through the key diagram showing the long run average cost curve for a business experiencing economies of scale and (eventually) diseconomies.

We also look at the difference between internal and external scale economies.

Internal economies of scale cause a movement down the long run average cost curve for a business. Whereas external economies of scale cause a downward shift in the long run average cost curve.
