Answer: It should shot down immediately.

Explanation:

If the market price is equal to average cost at the profit-maximizing level of output, then the firm is making zero profits. If the market price that a perfectly competitive firm faces is below average variable cost at the profit-maximizing quantity of output, then the firm should shut down operations immediately.
