Enter the money needed to produce another unit of X ($) and the rate of increase by cutting production of y (units) into the Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Mrt Cost. 

Mrt Cost Formula

MRT = MCx/MCy

Variables:

  • MRT is the Mrt Cost ($/unit)
  • MCx is the money needed to produce another unit of X ($)
  • MCy is the rate of increase by cutting production of y (units)

To calculate Mrt Cost, divide the money needed to produce another unit by the rate of increase by cutting the production of a different related unit.

How to Calculate Mrt Cost?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Mrt Cost.


  • First, determine the money needed to produce another unit of X ($). 
  • Next, determine the rate of increase by cutting production of y (units). 
  • Next, gather the formula from above = MRT = MCx/MCy.
  • Finally, calculate the Mrt Cost.
  • After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem : 

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

money needed to produce another unit of X ($) = 378

rate of increase by cutting production of y (units) = 83
