Expert Solution
Marginal Revenue

Marginal revenue is the revenue that is received by a firm for an additional unit of output. Marginal revenue is calculated as difference between total revenue (Price x Quantity) at the new level of output and total revenue at the previous output.

Therefore, if 

MR = Marginal Revenue

P1= Initial Price

P2 = Final Price 

Q1 = Initial Quantity

Q2 = Final Quantity

MR= P2xQ2 - P1xQ1
