If total revenue increases at a constant rate, what does thiscondition imply about marginal revenue?
Small businesses typically do not observe the demand curves for the products they sell. For example, a local bakery could not draw the demand curve for its loaves of sourdough bread. Without this important information, how would the local bakery maximize its revenue?
Should a company produce more goods when marginal revenue is greater than marginal costs? Explain.

When asked why, the owner said, “Women’s blouses cost more.” Abby suggested sending all the shirts in one bundle and enclosing a note saying, “There are no blouses here—these are all shirts.” Is the laundry practicing price discrimination, or is there really a $2.25 difference in cost? Assuming the laundry is engaging in price discrimination, why do men pay the lower price and women the higher? Could the laundry continue to separate markets if people followed Abby’s advice? What about the policing costs associated with separating the markets?arrow_forward

According to the midpoint method, the price elasticity of demand between points A and B is approximately 0.69 ▼ Suppose the price of scooters is currently $125 per scooter, shown as point A on the initial graph. Because the demand between points A and B is inelastic , a $25-per-scooter decrease in price will lead to a decrease in total revenue per week.arrow_forwardCalculate Total revenue if average revenue is $15 and output is 1000arrow_forward
