    The answer is: C) will suffer a loss equal to its fixed costs.

    Explanation:

    If a company shuts down its production temporarily (not permanently), it will stop receiving revenue from the goods it used to produce but at the same time will not be spending any money on variable costs. The company will suffer losses equivalent to its fixed costs (e. g. depreciation costs, rent, etc.).

    A company decides to shut down its production when the revenue it receives from selling its products doesn't even cover their variable costs. That means it is losing money by producing its goods.
