English term or phrase: surplus-maximizing output level
"One should also mention that, strictly speaking, productive efficiency and dynamic efficiency are also components of allocative efficiency. For example, a firm that lacks efficiency in production is a firm that fails to allocate the right mix of production inputs, which in turn results in a higher cost than the minimum necessary for producing a given output level. However, we normally use the term allocative efficiency--or simply efficiency--to characterize the output level as it compares to the **surplus-maximizing output level**."

Em economia, "ótimo" é o nível de equilíbrio, ou seja, capaz de trazer o máximo de benefícios, sem causar danos. Neste caso, os benefícios são o superávit (surplus).
