<h3>What is the marginal revenue curve for a perfectly competitive firm?</h3>

Marginal revenue for a company with perfect competition is the same as average revenue and pricing.
This suggests that at values bigger than the average variable cost, the firm's short-run supply curve is its marginal cost curve.
The company closes if the price falls below the average variable cost.

Marginal revenue is the change in total revenue when one more unit of a commodity is sold.

MR= change in TR/change in quantity sold

Average revenue refers to revenue per unit of output.

AR=TR/Q
