Answer:
a. during the the construction period of a self-constructed asset
Explanation:
"Determining the cost of constructing a new building is often more difficult. Usually this cost includes architect’s fees; building permits; payments to contractors; and the cost of digging the foundation. Also included are labor and materials to build the building; salaries of officers supervising the construction; and insurance, taxes, and interest during the construction period."

Answer:
A) leveraging new core competencies to improve current market position.
Explanation:
As is given in the scenario, the people that the company Ancho is trying to get are <em>potential customers</em> rather than existing, hence they cannot be said to be building new core competencies <em>to protect and extend current market position</em>. That would have been the case if they were trying to keep those that were already customers to the company.
Ancho cannot also be said to be <em>redeploying existing core competencies to compete in future markets </em>because they are actually acquiring new competencies in electric car manufacturing which was not their original line of business.
There is also no case of <em>unlearning existing core competencies </em>because Anchor has deployed existing competencies in developing a hybrid car rather than just an electric one.
Hence Anchor is trying to get new customers while keeping the old ones and has made a car that will appeal to both existing and potential customers to improve current market position.
Answer:
Italy has a comparative advantage in the production of cheese
Explanation:
Suppose that Italy and Sweden both produce rye and cheese.
Italy's opportunity cost of producing a pound of cheese is 5 bushels of rye while Sweden's opportunity cost of producing a pound of cheese is 10 bushels of rye.
<u>By comparing the opportunity cost of producing cheese in the two countries, you can tell that Italy has a comparative advantage in the production of cheese because it has a lower opportunity cost (as a matter of fact half the cost) in comparison with Sweden.</u>
<u>Comparative advantage is an economic term that refers to an economy's ability to produce goods and services at a lower opportunity cost than that of trade partners</u>
Answer:
b. All rocks in the Earth's crust will, at some point, be subducted and melted to create igneous rock.
Explanation:
There are 3 types of rock:
1. Igneous, wich are formed when 2 tectonic plates collide and magma goes to surface getting cold
2. Sedimentary: when many layers of preexistent rocks produce pressure and heat by weigth melting the rocks.
3. Metamorphic: a new rock is formed by chemical and/or physical reaction over preexistent rocks
Sedimentary and metamorphic would be subducted in order to produce new igneus rocks.
