Spanish term

MRS, MRC, MRT

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general) Electric Bill
From SAREN's Planilla Unica Bancaria [Sole Banking Form] in Venezuela. The numbers appear to be monetary amounts, so maybe the "M" in each case refers to "monto"? I cannot seem to find a good reference for this one.

MRS 645.16 MRC 0.00 MRT 645.16

Any help is appreciated!!

Thank you to everyone for all of your help!! I still am not completely convinced of the correct answer here, but am inclined to agree with Althea that these appear to be monetary amounts, and that is likely what the "S" "C" and "T" are referring to.

That must be because of your computer's firewall -- it opens for me.

If my references are correct then the 'R' part of MRS and MRT is the rate of substitution and transformation. In the MRC the 'R' component is the resource. I'm not sure of those all fit with the question about commerce and an electric bill.
Althea Draper Nov 9, 2021:
It looks like these might correspond to the subtotal, commission, and total amounts. I'm not sure what the 'R' means in each of them though.

link to similar form Here is a link to a similar form that I found, if that helps. The acronyms are right above the control number. http://sociedadvenezolanacirugiaplastica.org/wp-content/uplo...

It might just help if you could post some surrounding text/figures. Have you a link to a specimen form of the same format?

marginal rate of substitution

"MRS: The marginal rate of substitution is the amount of a good that a consumer is willing to consume compared to another good, as long as the new good is equally satisfying. There's an indifference theory to analyze consumer practices, such as the replacement of one good with another."
"MRT: The marginal rate of transformation is the number of units or amounts of a good that must be foregone to create or attain one unit of another good. It's the number of units of good Y which are foregone to produce an extra unit of good X, while keeping production factors and technology constant."
MRC = marginal resource cost
Example sentence:

MRC: " The amount or the total cost of employing a resource increases when a firm employs one additional unit of the resource, while the quantity of all other resources remains constant." (google.co.uk)

Note from asker:
Interesting, but not sure. To me, the numbers appear to refer to monetary amounts instead of rates. Thanks for the input, though!
