- A firm in a competitive market receives $500 in total revenue and has marginal revenue of $10. What is the average revenue, and how many units were sold? Microeconomics - MankiwA company in a perfectly competitive market produces an output level Q = 100 where marginal revenue is equal to marginal cost and has the following revenue and cost levels: Marginal cost curve intersects the average variable cost curve at $150. Marginal cost curve intersects the average total cost curve at $200. Marginal cost curve intersects the marginal revenue curve at $170. At Q = 100, ATC = $210 and AVC = $155 At this output of Q = 100, calculate: total revenue (TR), total cost (TC), variable cost (VC), and fixed cost (FC).
