In the monopolistic market setup, equilibrium occurs when MR= MC.
From the graph, it can be observed that MR is equal to MC when output Q = 50 and the corresponding price on the demand curve is $23.
However at the equilibrium, the per unit average cost is 25 which is greater than the price.
It implies that TR less than TC and firm makes losses. So, firms will exit from the industry and hence option D is correct

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...
