Question
Suppose the demand for a product X produced by a company AAA is given by the following function: QX = 2000 - 250*PX. At what
Demand function | Price function | Total Revenue (EUR) | Marginal Revenue (EUR) | Quantity | Price per product (EUR) |
Q = 2000 - 250P | P = ? | TR = Q*P | MR = dTR/dQ = 0 | Q = ? | P = (2000 - Q)/250 |
250P = 2000 - Q | TR = Q*(2000 - Q)/250 | MR = 8 - 2*Q/250 | Q/125 = 8 | P = (2000 - 1000)/250 | |
P = (2000 - Q)/250 | TR = 8*Q - Q^2/250 | 8 - Q/125 = 0 | Q = 1000 | P = 4 | |
Alternative solution | Demand function | Total Revenue (EUR) | Marginal Revenue (EUR) | Price per product (EUR) | |
Q = 2000 - 250P | TR = Q*P | MR = dTR/dP = 0 | 2000 - 500*P = 0 | ||
TR = (2000 - 250P)*P | MR = 2000 - 2*250*P | 500*P = 2000 | |||
TR = 2000P - 250P^2 | MR = 2000 - 500*P | P = 4 |
