    We can calculate Max Profit and Max Revenue like this:

    To calculate Max Profit and Max Revenue we need to use formula MR = a – 2bQ

    (1) Maximum Profit is where the MR = MC

    For Maximum Profit:
    MR = a – 2bQ = MC
    MR = 50 – 2($1/100)(1500) = $20
    MR = 50 – 0.02Q = $20
    MR = -0.02Q = $30
    Q = 30 / -0.02
    Q = 1500

    Put that Q=1500 into Price/Demand equation to find out the maximum selling price where we have maximum profit;

    P = a – bQ
    P = 50 – ($1/100)(1500)
    P = 50 – 0.01(1500)
    P = 50 – 15
    P = $35

    (2) Maximum Revenue is where the MR = 0
    For Maximum Profit:
    MR = a – 2bQ = 0
    MR = 50 – 2($1/100)(1500) = 0
    MR = 50 – 0.02Q = 0
    MR = -0.02Q = 50
    Q = 50 / -0.02
    Q = 2500

    Put that Q=1500 into Price/Demand equation to find out the maximum selling price where we have maximum profit;

    P = a – bQ
    P = 50 – ($1/100)(2500)
    P = 50 – 0.01(2500)
    P = 50 – 25
    P = $25

    The quantity (Q) will be higher in maximum revenue because max revenue will be when we have more units sold and it is where we have marginal revenue is 0

    Is that all correct?

    It seems correct, but please do not keep simply typing out what is in my lectures 🙂
