Answer:

Law of increasing costs

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of increasing costs states that when the production of a product increases, the costs also rise. They increase because when the production rises, you require more factors of production that are land, labor, capital and entrepreneurship. The amount of factors you need can cause that when you increase your production, the costs and the earnings increase at different rates which can decrease your profit margin.
