Answer #1

Answer : The answer is option C : (B - Y) * O.

For monopolist the profit maximizing condition is MR = MC. So, here the equilibrium quantity is O where the price is B and ATC is Y.

Per unit profit = Price - ATC = B - Y

Total profit = Per unit profit * Quantity = (B - Y) * O.

Hence except option C other options are not correct. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
