  1. hi , May i know where is the marginal revenue equation is given in question number 6 ?

  2. Kind of having a hard time with the formulas bit of the lecture, but it is not because they are not clearly explained, I guess I just need to practice more.

    I am just surprised that as I am already taking a course somewhere else, there was no mention of these formulas on the topic of pricing, they only taught basic things plus the pricing strategies, I wonder if pricing is not that common in the exam and that’s why they didn’t go in deep as it is explained in here?

    • Pricing does get asked every three or four exams. I am surprised if you are not being shown the formulae since you are given them in the exam on the formula sheet.

      • Oh! so it is actually a common topic. I saw the formula yet there was no great explanation about it, I also came across it obviously in F2. Also there was no talk whatsoever on MC and MR and all of that. I am glad I checked here for this extra bit.

        • It is no longer examinable in Paper F2, which makes it slightly more likely at F5 (although it is not so often at F5)

          • May I ask when was it removed from the F2 syllabus? Because I took my F2 exam last December so it is not long time back, I wonder if they taught it to me while it was out of the syllabus already!!!!!

          • Also I have another question and I am sorry if I am asking too many questions, but i would like to know if the price elasticity of demand is within the F5 syllabus, will I be expected to calculate the elasticity of products and so? I do have a basic idea about it from F1 and I believe I could answer a writing question on it as long as it is basic question but I am not sure if it is within the syllabus and if I am supposed to be aware of it. I am asking this because I found one question on it within my kit.

            Thank you very much and apologies for any disturbance.

          • Yes – it is in the syllabus :-)

          • I guess I have been studying the things which are not in the syllabus and leaving the topics included in the syllabus !!!

            Thank you for all the clarifications!! :D

  3. very in-sighting. God bless you

  5. Brilliant lecture thank you. i however am struggling to find past exam questions to do some more exercises any ideas?
    I only found Qs in the dec 2007 q1 .

    Tks

  6. can any body help me..is pricing strategies(cost plus price,marginal cost plus price) are also included in this chapter…..in some books its included?

    • Cost plus pricing (full cost + and marginal cost +) is in the syllabus and is (of course) covered in our notes and lectures on here.
      (It is more of a policy than a strategy, but that does not really matter.

  7. Thank u – brilliant
