  2. Marginal cost - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marginal_cost

    Marginal cost is the change of the total cost from an additional output [(n+1)th unit]. Therefore, (refer to "Average cost" labelled picture on the right side of the screen. Average cost. In this case, when the marginal cost of the (n+1)th unit is less than the average cost(n), the average cost (n+1) will get a smaller value than average cost(n).

  3. Database scalability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_scalability

    Database scalability is the ability of a database to handle changing demands by adding/removing resources. Databases use a host of techniques to cope. [ 1 ] According to Marc Brooker: "a system is scalable in the range where marginal cost of additional workload is nearly constant."

  4. Marginal revenue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marginal_revenue

    [1] [3] [8] The marginal revenue (the increase in total revenue) is the price the firm gets on the additional unit sold, less the revenue lost by reducing the price on all other units that were sold prior to the decrease in price. Marginal revenue is the concept of a firm sacrificing the opportunity to sell the current output at a certain price ...

  5. Cost curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_curve

    The marginal cost is shown in relation to marginal revenue (MR), the incremental amount of sales revenue that an additional unit of the product or service will bring to the firm. This shape of the marginal cost curve is directly attributable to increasing, then decreasing marginal returns (and the law of diminishing marginal returns).

  6. Total cost - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_cost

    The additional total cost of one additional unit of production is called marginal cost. The marginal cost can also be calculated by finding the derivative of total cost or variable cost. Either of these derivatives work because the total cost includes variable cost and fixed cost, but fixed cost is a constant with a derivative of 0.

  7. Monopolistic competition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopolistic_competition

    The company maximises its profits and produces a quantity where the company's marginal revenue (MR) is equal to its marginal cost (MC). The company is able to collect a price based on the average revenue (AR) curve. The difference between the company's average revenue and average cost, multiplied by the quantity sold (Qs), gives the total profit.

    The corresponding point on the supply curve measures marginal cost, the increase in total cost to the supplier for the corresponding unit of the good. The price in equilibrium is determined by supply and demand. In a perfectly competitive market, supply and demand equate marginal cost and marginal utility at equilibrium. [17]
