Total Revenue and the Revenue Function
Marginal Revenue
Marginal revenue (MR) is the additional revenue a firm gets from selling one more unit of its product. For discrete changes in output, it is calculated as the change in total revenue (ΔR) divided by the change in quantity (ΔQ), using the formula . When treating quantity (Q) as a continuous variable, calculus is employed. In this context, marginal revenue is defined as the rate at which total revenue changes in response to an infinitesimal increase in quantity, which corresponds to the derivative of the total revenue function.

Marginal Revenue
A company sells a product with an inverse demand function described by P = 120 - 0.5Q, where P is the price per unit and Q is the quantity of units sold. If the company decides to sell 40 units, what will be its total revenue?
Graphical Representation of Total Revenue
A firm sells a particular product. When the price is set at 45 per unit, it finds it can sell 240 units. Based on this information, how does the firm's total revenue change as a result of the price reduction?
A firm's market is characterized by an inverse demand function of P = 150 - 3Q, where P is the price per unit and Q is the quantity of units sold. Which of the following equations correctly represents the firm's total revenue (R) as a function of quantity (Q)?

Revenue Analysis of Competing Sales Targets
A firm's market is characterized by an inverse demand function of P = 100 - 2Q, where P is the price per unit and Q is the quantity of units sold. The firm is considering selling 30 units. Which statement accurately analyzes the components of total revenue at this output level?
The Price-Quantity Trade-off in Total Revenue
A firm faces an inverse demand function of P = 200 - 4Q, where P is the price per unit and Q is the quantity sold. The firm currently sells 25 units at a price of $80 per unit. Which statement provides the most accurate evaluation of the firm's revenue strategy at this level of output?
A firm's market is described by the inverse demand function P = 50 - 2Q, where P is the price per unit and Q is the quantity of units sold. Based on this function, the firm will generate the same amount of total revenue whether it sells 10 units or 15 units.
