    d. whether the firm is earning profit if fixed costs are left out of the calculation.

    Explanation:

    When price exceeds ATC, (ATC includes fixed cost) we are able to know that the firm is earning overall profits.

    Now if price exceeds AVC (AVC excludes fixed cost) we will be able to realize that the firm is earning profits where fixed costs are subtracted.
