Answer:

Marginal analysis compares ____________ and ____________ to determine the optimal outcome or choice.

d) marginal benefits, marginal costs

Explanation:

Marginal analysis concentrates on the evaluation of the additional benefits of an activity compared to the additional costs.  Marginal analysis is a decision-making tool that maximizes the potential profits that arise from changes in revenues and costs as a result of some changes in the activity levels.  The analysis is done to ensure that the company does not make a decision based on sunk costs or fixed costs, which do not change as a result of a decision.
