When demand is a decrease in price total revenue?
When demand decreases, total revenue typically declines as well. This occurs because a decrease in price usually leads to a reduction in the quantity sold, particularly if the product is elastic. However, if the demand is inelastic, total revenue may remain stable or even increase with a price decrease, as the loss in revenue from lower prices can be offset by a smaller drop in quantity sold. Thus, the relationship between price changes and total revenue depends on the elasticity of demand.
If there are a lot of people without jobs how do you think this will affect the amount of money that the government earns through taxes?
When there are a lot of people without jobs, the government's tax revenue will likely decrease. This is because unemployed individuals are not earning taxable income, leading to lower income tax revenue for the government. Additionally, decreased consumer spending by those without jobs can also impact sales tax revenue. Overall, high unemployment rates can significantly impact the government's ability to generate revenue through taxes.
Why is demand greater than marginal revenue for all imperfectly competitive firms?
In imperfectly competitive markets, firms have some control over the prices they charge. Demand is greater than marginal revenue for these firms because they must lower prices to sell more products, which reduces the revenue they earn on each additional unit sold. This is because they face downward-sloping demand curves, meaning they have to lower prices to attract more customers.

Is there any relationship between marginal revenue curve and demand curve?
Yes, there is a relationship between the marginal revenue curve and the demand curve. For a monopolistic firm, the marginal revenue curve lies below the demand curve because the firm must lower the price on all units sold to sell additional units, resulting in diminishing marginal revenue. In contrast, for a perfectly competitive firm, the marginal revenue curve is horizontal and coincides with the demand curve, as the firm can sell any quantity at the market price without affecting it. Thus, while the two curves are related, their positions and shapes differ based on the market structure.
