What is the difference between "diminishing marginal returns" and "diseconomies of scale"?
 
(i) Diminishing marginal returns that apply only in the short run, when at least one factor is fixed, explains why marginal cost increases, while diseconomies of scale which applies in the long run, when all factors are variable, explains why average cost increases.
(ii) Diminishing marginal returns which apply only in the short run, when at least one factor is fixed, explains why average variable cost increases, while diseconomies of scale which applies in the long run, when all factors are variable, explains why average total cost increases.
(iii) Both concepts explain why marginal cost increases after some point but diminishing marginal returns applies only in the short run when there is at least one fixed factor, while diseconomies of scale apply in the long run when all factors are variable.
(iv) Both concepts explain why average total cost increases after some point but diminishing marginal returns applies only in the short run when there is at least one fixed factor, while diseconomies of scale apply in the long run when all factors are variable.
