Answer:

d. the firm will lose $750

Explanation:

marginal cost is the derivate of the cost function: It represent the cost of producting an additional unit

cost: 750 + 5q

dC/dQ = 5

We have determinate that marginal cost is $5 thus, we should price at the same value. The mistake from the goverment is to equalize marginal cost with price instead of marginal revenue.

The fixed cost is $750 so that is the loss from operations
