If MR is greater than MC, the firm should increase their production. The ideal amount of production is determined by allowing the marginal cost to equal the marginal revenue.
At this intersection point on a graph, firms will earn maximum profit, even if this point is under average total cost.
To increase profit the firm will decrease output to a point where MC=MR. This is the Profit Maximisation point
Marginal cost is the extra cost incurred in producing one unit of a product.If the marginal cost is more than average cost that means that costs are increasing and if it is less it means costs are decreasing.This way we find out how are business is progressing.
Marginal cost = derivative of (Total cost/Quantity) Where Total cost = fixed cost + variable cost Marginal cost = derivative (Variable cost/Quantity) (by definition, fixed costs do not vary with quantity produced) Average cost = Total cost/Quantity The rate of change of average cost is equivalent to its derivative. Thus, AC' = derivative(Total cost/Quantity) => derivative (Variable cost/Quantity) = MC. So, when MC is increasing, AC' is increasing. That is, when marginal cost increases, the rate of change of average cost must increase, so average cost is always increasing when marginal cost is increasing.
Cost of revenue is the amount spent to sell a company's products.
increase output
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.
marginal cost of production
Profit=Total revenue - Total cost
price = marginal revenue. marginal revenue > average revenue. price > marginal cost. total revenue > marginal co
When Marginal Cost is below Marginal Revenue, profit is increasing. When Marginal Cost is above Marginal Revenue, profit is decreasing. Since the goal of firms is to maximise profit, they should produce at a level where the MR of producing another unit is equal to the Marginal Cost of producing another unit. Firms should keep producing until this point because there is a hidden profit in MC. This is because we are not taking into account the Accounting profit.
profit is maximized
A way to find the best level of output is to find the output level where marginal revenue is equal to marginal cost.
when marginal revenue equal to marginal cost,when marginal cost curve cut marginal revenue curve from the below and when price is greter than average total cost
Marginal revenue and marginal cost are equal, any other output level will result in reduced profit.
Marginal Revenue = Marginal Cost
