The firm is in the equilibrium in the short run where marginal revenue is equal to marginal cost. Economic profit is the difference between the marginal revenue and the average total cost of the firm which is EH in our case.

The graph to the right shows the Marginal Cost (MC), Average Total Cost (ATC), and Marginal Revenue (MR) curves for a perfectly (or purely) competitive firm. Note that the Demand (D) curve is the same as the MR curve for such a MR/MC ($) firm. Assume that the cost curves here are representative of other firms in the industry. Given the current price, this firm will: earn a positive profit. earn a negative profit. earn zero economic profit. In the...
