(C) BEP is possible both in long run and short run.
(D) BEP is the point of minimum average cost at which the supply curve cuts the LRAC curve.

(D) BEP is the point of minimum average cost at which the supply curve cuts the LRAC curve.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Solution
At the break-even point price equals minimum average cost, so the firm earns only normal profit (B); it exists in both short run (min SAC) and long run (min LRAC) (C), and the supply curve passes through minimum average cost (D). Statement (A) describes minimum AVC, which is the shutdown point, not the break-even point. Hence (B), (C), (D).
