B) To maximize revenue, Burger King will want the franchisee to produce at the level where total revenue is positive but falling.
C) The franchisee will produce at the level where the slope of the total revenue curve is zero in order to maximize profits.
D) The profit-maximizing level of output for the franchisee will be at the level where marginal revenue is less than marginal cost.
