Explanation / Answer

30. The correct answer is: B)

Reason: Advertising is profitable untill and unless the additional revenue generated through advertisement equals its marginal cost. If advertising is stopped before this then the additional net revenue due to advertising can be lost and if it is continued after the equilibrium level, then there will be a met loss. Hence, equilibrium is when MR from advertising equals MC from advertising.

P.S.: As per Chegg's policy, if nothing is being mentioned then only the firs question is to be answered.
