Answer:
The correct answer is economics of scale.
Explanation:
Economies of scale can be defined as the cost advantage experienced by the firms when they increase their output level. As the cost of production gets spread over a large quantity of output the average cost declines.
These costs can be both variables as well as fixed. Economies of scale can be both internal as well as external.
Size of business affects the economies of scale, larger the firm the more will be savings on cost.
We see that for every 8 sandwiches that the customer needs, he will pay for 5. Lets see how many groups of 8 sandwiches the order of 675 sandwiches contains. If we do Euclidean Division we see that there are 84 groups of 8 and that three sandwiches are the remainder. 675/8=84.375; Hence we have 84 groups and 0.375*8=3 sandwiches that remain. Thus, the customer would play for 84*5= 420 sandwiches if he had ordered 84 groups of 8 (namely 672 sandwiches). Since he needs another 3 sandwiches and there is no promotional offer for those, he will have to pay in total for 423 sandwiches. It is important to not divide the total number by 8 and then multiply it by 5; the customer gets the free sandwiches only if he completes an offer of 5 sandwiches, thus we have to group the sandwiches in octads and deal with the remainder separately.
Answer:
3400, Rise, C
Explanation:
1. Since there are just 3 firms and two already has a sum total of 70% (40+30), the third firm will have a market share of 30%
HHI= 
HHI= 1600+900+900
HHI= 3400
2. Abe's Bikes with 30% leaves the market, if the two firms were to share Abe's market share equally (15+15), it will leave Firm A with 55% (40+15) and Firm B with (30+15) 45%
Therefore,
HHI= 
HHI=3025+2025
HHI= 5050
A rise in HHI
3. C
An index of 10,000 corresponds to a monopoly firm with 100% market share.
Answer: 0.755
Explanation:
From the information given, the current per share value of the option if it expires in one year will be calculated as follows:
Firstly, we calculate the present value which will be:
= $28 / ( 1 + 0.05 )
= $28/1.05
= $26.667
The number of options needed will be:
= ( 34 - 28 )/ ( 4-0)
= 6/4
= 1.5
Therefore,
27.80 = (1.5 x Co) + [28 / (1+0.05)]
27.80 = 1.5Co + (28/1.05)
27.80 = 1.5Co + 26.667
1.5Co = 28.0 - 26.667
1.5Co = 1.1333
Co = 0.755
Therefore, the answer is 0.755
