Allocative efficiency is maximized when the marginal benefit = the marginal cost of producing one extra unit. Marginal Benefit = Marginal Cost. If the marginal benefit exceeds the marginal cost, then people will be willing to pay a higher price than the economic cost of production, which therefore allows the manufacturer to increase profits by ...
