yixuan cheng · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : B, Explanation :  When MB (marginal benefit) = MC (marginal cost), it means that the cost of producing or carrying out one more unit of the activity is equal to the benefit derived from that unit. At this point, the decision maker should continue doing the activity up to that point as the benefits equal the cost, and producing more will result in a cost greater than the benefit. Therefore, the best choice would be to continue with that amount of activity.
