Correct Answer: Rs. 3800
Solution : The correct option is Rs 3800.
Marginal revenue product (MRP), also known as the marginal value product, is the marginal revenue created due to an addition of one unit of resource.
In this case:
Change in Total Revenue = (Final Total Revenue) - (Initial Total Revenue)
Change in Total Revenue = (Final Output * Final Price) - (Initial Output * Initial Price)
Change in Total Revenue = Rs. 3800
MRP = (Change in Total Revenue)/(Change in Quantity of Labour)
MRP = Rs. 3800/1 = Rs 3800
