Answer:
TR decreases if Demand is Elastic, TR increases if Demand is Inelastic
Explanation:
Price Elasticity of Demand is the responsive change in price, due to change in price. Elastic demand means demand responds more to price change, Inelastic demand means demand responds less to price change. Total Revenue is the total receipt value from sales = Price x Quantity
- If demand is elastic : price & total revenue are inversely related - price increase, demand decrease & price decrease, demand increase.
- If demand is inelastic : price & total revenue are directly related - price increase, demand increase & price decrease, demand increase
So, If a company increases its sale price per unit of a product :
- Total Revenue would increase as a result of price rise, if demand is Inelastic
- Total Revenue would decrease as a result of price rise, if demand is Elastic
Answer:
B) a monopolist's demand curve is the same as the market demand curve
Explanation:
The demand curve is downward sloping for both monopolies and competitive markets. Rational consumers will always buy larger quantities of products or services when their prices are lower, and inversely will buy less when the price if higher. This applies to all types of markets except monopsonies (a lot of suppliers and only one consumer).

This is the value of stock or share that was set by the owners of a corporation at the point of registration of the company. It is the price that is stated in the corporation's article of association and also in the share certificate. The par value of a share has no relationship with the market value as they can be far apart.
The par value is a value specified by law for the protection of the people who might want to extend credit to the corporation.
