I'm thinking that marginal revenue product is the marginal revenue on one product, and marginal revenue is the marginal revenue on the whole firm sales... I'm wondering the same thing but the above response is incorrect. both terms imply values on one item as indicated by the "marginal"
price = marginal revenue. marginal revenue > average revenue. price > marginal cost. total revenue > marginal co
This question reflects a fundamental misunderstanding of supply and demand. Marginal revenue and average revenue are related to a firm's cost function, and are thus connected to SUPPLY. They have nothing to do with a demand curve in classical economics, which is the marginal benefit to the CONSUMER of being in the market.
A company maximizes profits when marginal revenue equals marginal costs.
Explain why the marginal revenue(MR) is always less than the average revenue (AR)?

Marginal revenue is the change in total revenue over the change in output or productivity.

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.
Because in Pure Competition, Demand equals Price, and Price equals Marginal Revenue;hence, Demand equals Marginal revenue.
what is average revenue?
marginal cost of production
Marginal Revenue is the derivate (rate of change) of total revenue. Total revenue is = Price x Quantity. For instance, if the demand curve was Q = 100 - P, find the inverse demand (P = 100 - Q). Total Revenue = 100Q-Q^2Therefore marginal revenue is the derivative of 100Q - Q^2.MR = 100 - 2Q (thus twice the negative slope).In short: inverse demand x Q, find the derivative.Source(s):Microeconomic Theory Class
