## Average Revenue Formula

The following equation is used to calculate the average revenue of a product.

AR = TR / Q
• Where AR is the average revenue per unit ($) • TR is the total revenue ($)
• Q is the total number of units sold

To calculate the average revenue, divide the total revenue by the number of units sold.

If you look at this formula a little closer, you can say that the total revenue is equal to the price per unit times the number of units, or P*Q. After simplifying the expression we find that the average revenue per unit is equal to the price per unit. This is true, but only if the price never changes. this is why calculating an average revenue can be helpful for products with variable pricing over time.
