Answer:

4. is most likely to result in the expected level of profit when demand is inelastic within the range of possible prices.

Explanation:

Average cost pricing is most likely to result in the expected level of profit when demand is inelastic within the range of possible prices. The average cost pricing rule is a pricing strategy that regulators impose on certain businesses to limit the price they are able to charge consumers for its products/services equal to the costs necessary to create the product/service. This implies that businesses will set the unit price of a product relatively close to the average cost needed to produce it.
