Profit=Total revenue - Total cost
A wild guess is that it is negative.
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
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.
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.
I'm thinking that marginal revenue product is the marginal revenue on one product, and marginal revenue is the marginal revenue on the whole firm sales... I'm wondering the same thing but the above response is incorrect. both terms imply values on one item as indicated by the "marginal"
price = marginal revenue. marginal revenue > average revenue. price > marginal cost. total revenue > marginal co
A company maximizes profits when marginal revenue equals marginal costs.
Explain why the marginal revenue(MR) is always less than the average revenue (AR)?
Marginal Cost = Marginal Revenue, or the derivative of the Total Revenue, which is price x quantity.
A monopolist will set production at a level where marginal cost is equal to marginal revenue.
Because in Pure Competition, Demand equals Price, and Price equals Marginal Revenue;hence, Demand equals Marginal revenue.
marginal cost of production
what is average revenue?
Profits will be maximized when marginal revenue is equal to marginal costs. This will only happen in cases where there are fixed costs.
The marginal benefit to the firm
Marginal revenue product is the additional profit a firm gains when it hires an additional worker.
