Explanation:

The marginal concept explain the benefit or the cost that a company or firm gets of produce and additional unit of their product. In this case the marginal costs exceeds the marginal revenue, It means that the actual level of revenue isn't producing the optimum profit that could reach if the company decrease the output, for example
