A. Average revenue for produce 9 units is $1
B. Average revenue for producing 9 units is $15
C. Marginal revenue for producing the 9 unit is $1
D. Marginal revenue for producing the 9 units is $15

Answer 1

D. Marginal revenue for producing the 9 units is $15

AR(9) = TR(9)/9 = 63/9 = $9

Note: TR=Total revenue, AR= Average Revenue and MR=Marginal Revenue

So, the only correct option is option d
