    c. profit per bushel is $2.75.

    Explanation:

    Let's calculate all of the parameters presented in the alternatives and compare to the real values:

    Units sold = 100

    Total cost per unit = $1.75

    Total revenue = $450

    Total fixed costs = $100

    Average fixed cost = $100/100 = $1.00

    Economic profit = $450 - ($1.75*100) = $275

    Profit per bushel = $275/100 = $2.75

    Average variable cost = $1.75 - $1.00 = $0.75

    Therefore, the only alternative that presents correct values is c. profit per bushel is $2.75
