Correct Option: D

The long-run average cost curve (LRAC) is an envelope of all the short-run average cost curves (SRAC). It touches the SRAC curves at the points where the firm is operating at its most efficient scale for a given level of output. The LRAC touches the SRAC at the minimum point of only one of the short-run cost curves.
