(ii) Average revenue equals $3. (iii) Total revenue equals $900. a. (i) only b. (iii) only c. (i) and (ii) only d. (i), (ii), and (iii)

Answer 1

d. (i), (ii), and (iii)

Step-by-step explanation:

A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogeneous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.

Price = marginal revenue = average price

total revenue = price x quantity = $3 x 300 = $900
