Question
Under Perfect Competition
Options:
A .  Average Revenue is more than the Marginal Revenue
B .  Marginal Revenue is less than the Average Revenue
C .  Average Revenue is less than the Marginal Revenue
D .  Average Revenue is equal to the Marginal Revenue
Answer: Option D
Answer: (d)
Perfect competition describes markets such that no participants are large enough to have the market power to set the price of a homogeneous product.
In the short run, perfectly competitive markets are not productively efficient as output will not occur where marginal cost is equal to average cost (MC=AC).
They are allocatively efficient, as output will always occur where marginal cost is equal to marginal revenue (MC=MR).
