The correct answer is the letter A.

Down here is a quick explanation.

Marginal analysis divides a large decision into small steps and compares the benefits and costs of each step (these are called marginal benefit and marginal cost). Basically, the rule of marginal analysis is to continue doing something until the marginal benefit equals marginal cost.
