Solution

The question is asking about the change in total revenue when the price increases from P1 to P2 on a demand curve. Total revenue is calculated as the price per unit times the quantity of units sold.

When the price increases from P1 to P2, the quantity demanded decreases from Q4 to Q3 according to the demand curve. This means that the total revenue will gain the areas under the demand curve from P1 to P2, but lose the areas from Q4 to Q3.

Looking at the options, the correct answer is: "C + F + H, but it will lose area J."

Here's why:

  • The total revenue gains areas C, F, and H. These are the areas under the demand curve from P1 to P2.
  • The total revenue loses area J. This is the area under the demand curve from Q4 to Q3.

So, when the price increases from P1 to P2, the total revenue will gain areas C + F + H, but it will lose area J.
