8,288

x 6.20% Sccial Security                      513.856

x 1.45% Medicate                                120.176

x 6.20% FUTA&SUTA  (for 7,000)       434

Michael porter says that companies gain a competitive advantage by giving customers __________.
Delicious77 [7]

That companies gain a competitive advantage by giving customers focus, cost leadership, and differentiation

<h3>What is competitive advantage?</h3>

A firm seeks a competitive advantage when it aims to surpass its rivals in terms of profitability. An organization must be able to communicate to its chosen target market that it has a higher comparative or differential value than its rivals in order to establish and retain a competitive advantage. For instance, a business is likely to have a competitive advantage if it advertises a product at a lower price than a similar product from a rival. The same holds true if the marketed item is more expensive but has special characteristics that buyers are ready to pay for.

The SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) analytical technique is credited to Albert Humphrey at the Stanford Research Institute. Porter's Five Forces is an alternative model that helps businesses understand their position within a competitive landscape.
