What does Total Revenue (TR) represent for a business?
Income from sales
Profit maximization occurs when marginal revenue equals
marginal cost
.
True
Order the steps to calculate Total Costs (TC):
1️⃣ Calculate Fixed Costs (FC)
2️⃣ Calculate Variable Costs (VC)
3️⃣ Add FC and VC to find TC
Variable Costs (VC) change directly with the level of
output
.
What is the condition for profit maximization in terms of marginal revenue and marginal cost?
MR = MC
Total Revenue is calculated by multiplying the price per unit by the
quantity
sold.
What is normal profit in business terms?
Profit covering all costs
Profit maximization occurs when marginal revenue equals
marginal cost
.
True
Abnormal profit represents earnings above the break-even
point
Marginal revenue equals marginal cost at the level of output where
profit maximization
occurs.
True
Abnormal profit indicates that total revenue exceeds total
costs
Match the profit type with its formula:
Normal Profit ↔️ TR = TC
Abnormal Profit ↔️ TR > TC
What is the formula for total costs?
FC + VC
The formula for calculating Total Profit (TP) is
TR
- TC.
Match the components of Total Revenue with their definitions:
Price per unit (P) ↔️ Price at which each product is sold
Quantity sold (Q) ↔️ Total number of products sold
What are Fixed Costs (FC)?
Costs that do not vary with output
Total Profit is calculated by subtracting Total Costs from Total
Revenue
.
True
Match the types of profit with their definitions:
Normal Profit ↔️ Covers all costs, including entrepreneur's salary
Abnormal Profit ↔️ Profit exceeding normal profit
Total Costs include both Fixed Costs and Variable Costs.
True
Abnormal profit occurs when total revenue exceeds total
costs
What condition is necessary for a firm to earn normal profit?
Total revenue equals total cost
What formula is used to calculate average profit (AP)?
AP = TP / Q
At what point does total revenue equal total cost in business?
Normal profit
How is total profit (TP) calculated?
TR - TC
Fixed costs do not change with the level of
output
Match the profit type with its condition:
Normal Profit ↔️ TR = TC
Abnormal Profit ↔️ TR > TC
