EGT1 Task 1 In this paper I am going to define a few common economic terms and explain their relationships to other economic terms. I will also explain how profit maximizing firms determine their optimal level of output and how a profit maximizing firm will react to different levels of marginal revenue. Marginal revenue is the extra revenue that will be made by a firm when the firm sells one additional unit of a product. Total revenue is simply the sum of a firm ’s sales of a specified quantity

EGT1 Task: 309.1.1.05‚ 06 In business there are certain factors that have to be evaluated before a company can see if a profit has been made. To even get to the point where a profit will be made there has to be a product that is sold whether it is a tangible or an intangible product. There has to be something that the business is selling in order to make that profit. The amount of profit that is attained is the outcome of the total revenue minus the total cost. This will then show the

Marginal Analysis Economics & Global Business Applications‚ EGT 1‚ Task 1 A. Explanation of profit maximization The total revenue‚ TR‚ is the overall amount of all sources of a business’s income. It consists of total sales or profit‚ over a period of time. The TR can be calculated by taking the price and multiplying it by the quantity. For example‚ if a business decides to retail another product and the total revenue does increase‚ thus the marginal revenue would be greater than zero

Marginal Revenue: Marginal Revenue can be termed as the change in the total revenue from an additional unit that is sold by a firm. Example‚ the total revenue when 10 units are sold is $50‚ and total revenue when 11 units are sold is $55. Marginal Revenue in this case will be (55-50)/(11-10) = $5. One can compute the total revenue if the marginal revue and the number of units sold. If the marginal revenue of a product is zero than the total revenue will not change with an increase in the number

EGT1 TASK 1 309.1.1-05‚ 06 A. Marginal revenue indicates how much extra revenue a company receives for selling an extra unit of output. 1. Marginal Revenue is the change in total revenue resulting from a change in the quantity of output sold. Expressed as: Marginal Revenue = change in total revenue/change quantity. B.

EGT1 Task 2 A) Elasticity of Demand pertains to the relationship of price and need of a product. If a price increases will the demand increase or decrease? When a demand is elastic‚ it means even a small change in price can cause a large change in the quantities consumers purchase. (McConnell‚ pg. 77) So for example in an elastic demand if you reduce the price of a good the demand will increase a large amount and revenue then increases. When the is inelastic‚ according to McConnell it means when

EGT1 Task 4 The world is changing in many different areas‚ and one of the many different ways it’s changing is how businesses change and continue to grow. When businesses grow and expanded there are possibilities of gaining access into new markets that need to be understood before entering.

Total revenue (TR) to total cost (TC) is cost‚ which is calculated using total revenue minus the total cost‚ (TR-TC). As each unit is produced‚ the total cost increases in addition to the total revenue. Yet‚ at some point in the production of the additional units‚ the total revenue will exceed the total cost. When it reaches that point‚ it becomes a loss. The point
