Q13 of 14 Page 4

Giving reasons identify the equilibrium level of output and find profit at this output using ‘Marginal Cost and Marginal Revenue’ approach from the following.



Here,


TR = Total Revenue
TC = Total Cost
MR = Marginal Revenue
MC = Marginal Cost


The conditions for reaching equilibrium level of output are as follows:


(A) Marginal Cost = Marginal Revenue


(B) Marginal cost must be increasing


Thus, the producer reaches the equilibrium at an output of 3 units as at that level, both conditions of the equilibrium are met.
