Explanation / Answer

Consider the given fig of the orange market here the orange market is competitive, => the optimum quantity production will be determined by the condition “P=MC”.

So, if the “P=$22”, => the farmer is making a “positive profit”.

The orange farmer will make a profit if the price of orange is above “$20” per crate. Since the min(ATC)=$20. So, if the “P” is more than “min(ATC)”, => the orange farmers will make positive profit.
