How do you calculate marginal revenue cost by math and graphically and marginal in general?

Profit=Total revenue - Total cost


Is -5 marginal revenue positive negative or zero?

A wild guess is that it is negative.


If marginal revenue is zero total revenue remains unchanged?

Yes. This is because when MR is at 0, TR is at is maximum. Generally firms produce at MR=MC, therefore if MR < 0, then MC > MR and firms will not produce at the this point. And so when MR = 0, this will be the total level of revenue achieved, and so total revenue remains unchanged


How do you find the markup of 50 percent a 200 dollar suit?

Calculate the marginal cost of producing the suit. In an ideal, competitive world, the marginal cost = price, so this will be our base. Then you simply find 200 - marginal cost and this provides you the markup.


Application of calculus to business decision process?

Microeconomics, which determines much of the business decision process, looks to the margin for much of its data. What is the marginal cost of producing one more piece of output? What is the marginal cost of hiring one more employee? What is the marginal benefit of opening another store? In other words, the business decision process is not concerned with the total cost of producing all its units as much as producing just one more. In this sense, the margin is the derivative of the total cost. When the marginal benefit of something is greater than the marginal cost, the action will be followed. If the marginal cost is greater, it will not be. A company will produce more output until marginal benefit is equal to marginal cost. To maximize profits, the decisions of a company need to be made based upon this knowledge and some very complex calculus to find just want marginal costs and benefits of any given action are.
