  • In this video, I explain how to identify the profit-maximizing quantity and calculate total revenue and profit. MR=MC is the most important concept in microeconomics. Thanks for watching.

    Everyone, please pray for Jacob Clifford. He suffered a terrible back injury after carrying my whole econ grade this semester.

    It blows my mind that you can explain a concept in 4 minutes that my teacher couldn't help me understand in an entire semester.
    Keep up the awesome work, you have some seriously lucky students!

    My microeconomics teacher is straight off the boat from South Africa so there is a HUGE language barrier, not to mention his horrible analogies and examples he uses when trying to explain something. You are practically teaching me the material, i just sit in his class and try not to let him confuse me. Thank you for all you do!

    @drevil530 6 лет назад

    I've been a fan of Khan Academy but I stay firm with the belief that Warren Buffet said it best, " Everyone has their own circle of competence" . Mr. Clifford, I keep coming back to your videos about economics due to the fact that you just don't present it in a fashion that is very friendly but because you make it so easy to comprehend and you always apply real-world scenario. Cheers! I'll buy you a beer if you ever make your way here in Europe.
