A is my pick. Marginal cost stays the same if fixed costs don’t change.

I lean towards C. If variable costs rise, marginal cost should too.

I think the answer is D. Higher revenues but rising costs? Not good.

Definitely goes up as revenue lags behind costs.

I feel like I saw something similar where marginal cost increased as variable costs went up, but I can't recall if it was directly related to revenue changes.

I’m a bit confused about how fixed costs play into this. Does that mean marginal cost could stay the same if revenue is just lagging behind variable costs?

I remember a practice question where fixed costs stayed the same, and it seemed like marginal cost would rise if variable costs were outpacing revenue.

I think if revenue is increasing slower than variable costs, the marginal cost might actually increase, but I'm not sure if it’s at the same rate.
