Essay In this Essay I am going to explain the relationship between marginal revenue and marginal cost, and the importance of these concepts for profit maximization. One approach for profit maximization is by looking at the total revenue (TR) to total cost (TC). This is where the quantity being generated is yielding the greatest difference between the TR and the total TC. Another approach is using marginal revenue (MR) to marginal cost (MC). MR is the increase in revenue that results from the sale

instances, vertical integration. 9. a. When MC(L) = 30 + 4L, the optimal contract lengths sets this equal to the marginal benefit of $100, yielding L = 17.5. b. When MC(L) = 40 + 5L , the optimal contract length sets this equal to the marginal benefit of $100, yielding L = 12. c. When the marginal cost curve increases, the optimal contract length decreases.

Question 1. I think he was average at both.
