Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

When the subsidy is provided to only a single firm, that firms marginal cost will decline. The firm can take advantage of decreased marginal cost by increasing the output level. The firm will produce the output where the price and marginal revenue is equal to marginal cost plus subsidy. At this point, the firm will be having maximum profit.

So, the firm will increase production until

P=MC+S
