Given that TC = TFC + TVC and TR = AR x Q, profit is equal to

Answer Details
Profit can be defined as the difference between total revenue (TR) and total cost (TC). Using the given formulas, we can express profit as: Profit = TR - TC Substituting TR = AR x Q and TC = TFC + TVC, we get: Profit = AR x Q - TFC - TVC Therefore, the answer is: (AR x Q) - TC. Note that (AR + Q) - TFC and (TC x Q)/AR are not equivalent to the formula for profit, and (TFC + TVC)/Q is equivalent to the formula for average variable cost (AVC), not profit.
