How to use the concept of price elasticity of demand to maximize revenue?
Price elasticity of demand is a way to determine marginal revenue. Optimal revenue and, more importantly, optimal profit will occur to the point when marginal revenue = marginal cost, or the price elasticity of demand < 1.
If you have Marginal Cost and Marginal Damages how do you find the optimal level of output?
The optimal level of output is where marginal costs = marginal damages.
How do you achieve allocative efficiency?
Allocative efficiency is an output level where the price equals the marginal cost of production. This is because the price that consumers are willing to pay is equivalent to the marginal utility that they get. Therefore the optimal distribution is achieved when the marginal utility of the good equals the marginal cost.
Perfectly competitive firm in long run equilibrium?
what about them? profits are 0 price=marginal cost all costs are variable optimal allocation of inputs is where marginal rate of technical substitution is equal to the price ratio of the inputs.
How a monopoly firm will not achieve allocative efficiency?
They produce at a different point than a competitive firm, a monopoly produces at a point where marginal revenue= marginal cost, where a competitive firm equates price to marginal cost. The marginal cost curve is lower than the demand curve, but the monopoly charges the price at the demand curve, which is a higher price and a lower quantity than a competitive market would produce.

What is the optimal level of pollution?
when marginal benefit is equal to marginal cost To be more specific: When the marginal damage cost of polluting is equal to the marginal abatement cost of polluting (or the marginal benefit of polluting, which is equivalent to the MAC)

What is the formula to find the marginal cost?
Marginal Cost = Marginal Revenue, or the derivative of the Total Revenue, which is price x quantity.
How does a monopolistically competitive firm determine its profit-maximizing price?
price = marginal revenue. marginal revenue > average revenue. price > marginal cost. total revenue > marginal co
What is the difference between price and average cost?
