Suppose that Musashi is the only seller of trekking poles in a small town. The following graph shows the demand and marginal revenue (MR) curves
facing Musashi. Use the green rectangle labeled Total Revenue (triangle symbols) to compute total revenue at various prices along the demand curve.
To see the area of the Total Revenue rectangle, click the shaded area with your mouse. (Note: You will not be graded on where you place the
rectangle.)

On the following graph, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot monthly total revenue at prices of $70.00, $60.00, $50.00, $40.00, $30.00,
$20.00, and $10.00 per trekking pole. Be sure to use all of the points provided. Line segments will automatically connect the points. Then, consider
the quantity of trekking poles at which Musashi's marginal revenue exactly equals zero. Place a grey point (star symbol) on the total revenue curve to
indicate this quantity.

If Musashi sells 2,000 poles at the highest price consumers are willing to pay according to the demand curve, his average revenue will be
$
per pole.
More than 4,000 poles, but no more than 8,000 poles
More than 8,000 poles
Total Revenue
Consider the elasticity of demand along the demand curve. Even though the cost curves are not shown, you can conclude that Musashi will produce:
No more than 4,000 poles
