Marginal revenue refers to the change in revenue or additional revenue which a firm earns on selling a unit more of its output. It is calculated by dividing the change in total revenue by change in total quantity of commodity sold.

Marginal revenue = Change in total revenue/ Change in quantity of commodity sold.

Average revenue is the revenue per unit of output sold in the market.

Average Revenue = total revenue/total quantity

Price elasticity of demand is the responsiveness of demand of a commodity towards change in its own price. It is denoted by e.

The relationship between these three is:

MR = AR {(e-1)/e} which denotes that MR is directly related to AR but change twice the proportion of AR whereas MR is inversely related to elasticity of demand.
