Here, option A is correct that is maximize profit.
Because, in perfect competitive makret, there is no barriers on entry and exit of firms.
And, A firm produces where it earns maximum total profits and total profits are maximum where The difference between total revenues and total cost is maximum.
Now, marginal profit zero is situation after which the firm can't increase its profit further more.
So, option A.

Your textbook states that, in the long run, representative firms in monopolistically competitive markets will just break even --- that is, earn zero economic profits. Yet some firms in highly competitive markets manage to continue to earn economic profits indefinitely. For example, perfumes, cosmetics, and hair care firm L’Oreal, in business since 1907, remains highly profitable today, despite competing in fiercely competitive product categories. How has L’Oreal managed to stay profitable for so long (clue: they have a research and...

By now we all should know that the condition to maximize profits in any industry is setting marginal cost equal to marginal benefit. Firms face similar costs regardles of the type of their industry. However, marginal benefits depend on the type of industry. Consequently, the amount produced (Q) and the price of a good (P) also changes across market structures. Can anyone tell us how Q and P change across market structures? Focus on monopolistic competitive markets.
