Total revenue decreases a little bit. So you could almost say that it stays the same.
Example:
The price of a Mars bar decreases by 10% and as a result of this demand extends by 10% (because we're talking here about unitary elasticity). So:
Ed = +10% / -10% = -1
Thus quantity demanded reacts in exactly the same way as the chane in price only in opposite direction.
Imagine this simple situation:
Selling price Mars bar: €1
Demand for Mars bar: 100
Total Revenue: p x q = 1 x 100 = €100
Change in price:
Selling price Mars bar (-10%): 90 cents
Demand MB (+10%): 110
Total revenue = 0.9 x 110 = €99
Change in TR: €1
Hope you understand it now!
When Demand is perfectly elastic, Marginal Revenue is identical with price.

unitary elastic products are those with a supply and demand slope=1.
on the linear demand curve, demand is elastic at price above the point of unitary elasticity so a price increase will decrease the total revenue.
Unitary elastic is a demand whose elasticity is exactly equal to 1.

Unitary elastic is a demand whose elasticity is exactly equal to 1.
It means it is Unitary elastic.
The term "Unitary elastic" is used when the price elasticity of demand is equal to 1. For example, change in price from 10 to11 (+10%) causes change in quantity from 10 to 9 (-10%). 10%/10%=1. Unitary Elastic for the Elasticity of Demand is a proportionate change in price and quantity. This means that the reaction of consumers to price changes is stable and not dramatic like elastic products, and not small or no changes in quantity like inelastic products. It's in the middle of these two. As price goes up or down for unitary products, the total revenue from it stays relatively the same.
The term unitary elastic is used in economics and is also known as unitary elastic demand or unitary elasticity. It is a measure that is used to show the elasticity of the amount demanded of a product to a change in the price of the product.
if a price cut decreases total revenue, demand is elastic. if a price cut decreases total revenue, demand is inelastic. if a price cut leaves total revenue unchanged, demand is unit elastic.
Demand is unit elastic.
