The maximum input power is

\operatorname{maximum} P_{i}( dc )=\frac{2 V_{C C}^{2}}{\pi R_{L}}=\frac{2(25 V )^{2}}{\pi 4 \Omega}= 9 9 . 4 7 W

The maximum output power is

\operatorname{maximum} P_{o}( ac )=\frac{V_{C C}^{2}}{2 R_{L}}=\frac{(25 V )^{2}}{2(4 \Omega)}=78.125 W

[Note that the maximum efficiency is achieved:

\left.\% \eta=\frac{P_{o}}{P_{i}} \times 100 \%=\frac{78.125 W }{99.47 W } 100 \%=78.54 \%\right]

To achieve maximum power operation the output voltage must be

V_{L}( p )=V_{C C}=25 V

and the power dissipated by the output transistors is then

P_{2 Q}=P_{i}-P_{o}=99.47 W -78.125 W =21.3 W
