Ответ:
D) More than four units of the public good should be produced
Explanation:
Marginal cost refers to the additional cost incurred for an extra unit of a good produced.
A firm continues production till the point marginal profit is zero.
Marginal profit is the excess of marginal revenue over marginal cost.
Marginal revenue refers to the addition to total revenue when an additional unit of output is sold.
In the given case, marginal profit is positive under both the scenarios.
Thus, more than four units of public goods shall be produced until the point marginal profit is zero i.e marginal revenue = marginal cost.
