Production of goods refers to the process through which raw material and resources are converted to a finished product.

When the costs outweigh the benefits, then the good should not be produced. When the costs are equal to the benefits, it means the business will break-even, so there will be no profits, it is advisable not to produce the good. Finally, when the benefits outweigh the costs, it is advisable to produce the good.
