TOTAL REVENUE, MONOPOLY: The revenue received by a monopoly firm for the sale of its output. Total revenue is one of two parts a monopoly needs for the calculation of economic profit, the other is total cost. In general, total revenue is the price received for selling a good times the quantity of the good sold at that price. Because a monopoly completely controls its market and faces a negatively-sloped demand curve, it charges a different price for a given quantity. If a monopoly sells a relatively small quantity, it charges a relatively high price. If it sells a relatively smaller quantity, it charges a relatively lower price. However, once the monopoly determines its' price/quantity combination, total revenue calculation is relatively straightforward, multiply the price times the quantity.
