Solution

The correct option is C 30 and 55 respectively

Marginal revenue refers to the change in revenue or additional revenue which a firm earns on selling a unit more of its output. It is calculated by dividing the change in total revenue by change in total quantity of commodity sold.

Marginal revenue = Change in total revenue/ Change in quantity of commodity sold.

Change in total revenue = ( 330 - 300)

= 30

Change in quantity sold = (6 - 5) units

= 1 unit

Marginal revenue = 30 / 1 unit = 30


Average revenue is the revenue per unit of output sold in the market.

Average Revenue = total revenue/total quantity

Average revenue of 6 units = 330/6

= 55

Therefore, the MR and AR of 6 units are 30 and 55 respectively.
