Answer:
The correct answer is option B.
Explanation:
Profit maximization refers to the situation when a firm is able to maximize the total profit that it could earn through the production of goods and services.
The total profit is maximized when the marginal profit is zero or when the marginal revenue is equal to marginal cost. The marginal profit is the difference between marginal revenue and marginal cost.
If the marginal revenue is greater than the marginal cost the firm should increase production till both are equal.
In case, marginal revenue is less than the marginal cost the firm should stop producing more and reduce production till both are equal.
