Detailed explanation-1: -Marginal Product is the defined as the change in total product resulting from one additional unit of a variable factor. For output to be maximized the marginal product should be 0. As if marginal product ≥ 0 it is profitable to increase production. If marginal product ≤ 0 it is profitable to decrease production.

Detailed explanation-2: -Point of inflexion is the point where the slope of the TP curve reaches the maximum and starts decreasing. At this point, MP is maximum.

Detailed explanation-3: -When marginal product of a factor is zero then total product will be maximum.
