Computing Total and Marginal Revenue

4. Below is a demand curve. From it, compute total revenue and marginal revenue. Put your answers in the yellow cells, entering just a number--the dollar sign is already there.

(Hint: Do the Total Revenue column first, then the Marginal Revenue column. Notice that the first Marginal Revenue box is between 0 and 1 units of output and the last is between 4 and 5 units of output.)
