Answer:
2968
Explanation:
total demand is 2554
growth rate is 16.2%
Next year total demand = 2554 + growth (total demand x 16.2%)
= 2554 + 2554*16.2/100
= 2554 + 413.748
= 2967.748
= 2968

Answer:
Specialization and the division of labor can increase productivity.
Explanation:
Specialization is about an <em>invidivual</em> focusing on very specific tasks that are best suited to them according to their skills and knowledge. This concept can be applied to <em>companies</em> and <em>countries</em>, as they specialize on producing a small amount of products they excel at, for having the raw material, knowledge and/or technology to do so.
The division of labor is about breaking down the production process of a good in <em>different parts</em> performed by <em>different people</em> instead of having all workers performing all the tasks. The idea is to let workers be <em>specialists</em> in a small amout of tasks so that they can be more efficient and overall productivity can be greatly increased. This concept was introduced by the <u>'father of economics'</u> Adam Smith in his book "The Wealth of Nations" released in 1776.
Specialization and division of labor are complementing concepts that bring a company an increase in productivity and helps achieve economies of scale.
