Study Notes
Elasticity and Revenue
- At the OQ level of output, Marginal Revenue (MR) is 0, and Total Revenue (TR) is maximum at this point.
- At point P, corresponding to the OQ level of output, elasticity (e) is 1, which makes P the midpoint.
- If the quantity is greater than OQ, it corresponds to the portion of the Average Revenue (AR) curve where elasticity (e) is less than 1.
- Beyond the OQ level of output, MR is less than 0 (negative), and TR decreases.
- For a quantity less than OQ, elasticity (e) is greater than 1, and MR is positive.
- Where elasticity is less than unity, MR is greater than the price.
