Let’s assume that in Kansas, a family farmer sells wheat in a perfectly competitive market. After increasing the production of wheat from 220 bushels to 240 bushels, the total revenue of the farmer increases from $6,600 to $6,700. What was the marginal revenue of this increase in production in dollar?
