    25th house's Marginal cost is $250,000.

    Explanation:

    Given:

    Total cost of 24 houses = $4,800,000

    Total cost of 25 houses = $5,050,000

    Marginal cost = ?

    Computation of marginal cost:

    Marginal cost = Change in total cost

    Marginal cost = Total cost of 25 houses - Total cost of 24 houses

    Marginal cost = $5,050,000 - $4,800,000

    Marginal cost = $250,000

    So, we say that 25th house's marginal cost will be $250,000.
