The point of minimum average cost at which the supply curve cuts the long run average cost (LRAC) curve is called ----------------- of a firm.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Under perfect competition, the long run supply curve of a firm is the rising portion of LRMC from and above minimum LRAC. The point of minimum average cost where the supply curve cuts the LRAC curve is called the break-even point, since price equals average cost and the firm earns only normal profit there.
