When TR curve is parallel to X axis , what is the shape of demand curve and MR curve ?

Judanne,

When TR curve is parallel to X- axis, then MR is zero. Therefore, MR curve is also a horizontal straight line and coincides with the output-axis.


When TR curve is parallel to X-axis, then the demand curve will be downward sloping.

Demand curve or AR curve will slope downwards from left to right because horizontal TR indicates that TR remains same at levels of output.
And MR curve coincides with x-axis in such a case,as revenue from additonal commodity is zero.
