Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a certain production level, cost minimization is equal to product maximization. Cost minimization refers to the production level where average total cost per unit is lowest. On the other hand, production maximization refers to maximizing product output given certain restraints, e.g. amount of raw materials, number of labor hours, etc. Product maximization basically refers to the efficiency of production.

If someone can achieve product maximization and cost minimization, they should be maximizing profit.
