Answer:

B) To maximize profit, firms should produce at a level of output where price equals average variable cost

Explanation:

Firms maximize their profit by equating Marginal revenue with The Marginal cost. So, since for perfectly competitive firms, the price equals the Marginal revenue, for these firms profit is maximized by equating Price with Marginal cost not the  average variable cost.
