D. is realizing an economic profit of $40.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Economic profit will be $40

So option (d) will be correct option

Explanation:

We have given number of units produced = 20 units

Price of per unit = $10 per unit

So revenue = 20×$10 = $200

Revenue :20 units * $10 = 200

Fixed cost is given $100

Variable cost: 20 units ×$3 = 60

So total cost= Fixed cost + Variable cost = 100 + 60 =$160

So economic profit = Revenue - Total cost = 200 - 160 = $40

So option (d) will be correct answer
