Well this might sound crazy, but here it goes.

Elasticity is the rate of response due to price change.
PEoD = % change in quantity demanded)/(% change in price)
..what happens when your change 1.00 coke to 1.50

Marginal revenue is the revenue a product will bring and is usually equal to the change in total revenue.
..what do you make when you change 1.00 coke to 1.50

Hope this helps, Good Luck

As you know, the demand curve is negatively sloped. This means that the quantity demanded will increase as price goes down, and decrease as price goes up.

Revenue is, of course, quantity times price. If price goes up and quantity goes down, then it's possible for the total revenue to either increase or decrease.

Suppose the price of your commodity goes up.

If total revenue increases, then the marginal revenue is positive. This means the demand is inelastic: the quantity demanded isn't all that heavily affected by price.

If total revenue decreases, then the marginal revenue is negative. This means the demand is elastic: A small change in price leads to a large change in quantity demanded.

Hopefully that clears things up for you :-)

price elasticity of demand is directly proportional to the marginal revenue. because as the demand increaases the marginal revenue also increases.

price elasticity of demand is directly proportion to marginal revenue.
explanation: when revenue is more price is more and revenue is marginal price of a commidity will be less.
i hope this will solve your question.
