Sara works at a printing company. She and her colleagues have to stagger
dolphi86 [110]

Answer: D. Why the customer needs 5,000 extra flyers

Explanation:

The important factors that Sara will consider to know whether her company can accommodate the request are:

• Whether her company has enough paper on hand

• Whether her company can print the additional flyers without negatively affecting the other projects

• Whether there is enough time to print the additional flyers by tomorrow.

These factors above are important as they'll determine if she can accept the request or not. For example, in a situation where there's no enough paper, then the request should not be accepted.

The least important factor for Sara to consider will be "Why the customer needs 5,000 extra flyers". This is not of concern to Sara and shouldn't bother her.

High quality goods and services are made available to consumers because of producers __________.
trapecia [35]

Answer:

b. Would like to compete

d. specilize in production

Explanation:

Competition is when businesses selling similar products, in the same market, try to outsell each other through winning more customers.  When businesses compete, consumers benefit through fair prices and higher quality goods. Competing businesses innovate and create products with a high utility value to attract more customers. As a result, they offer customers products and services of high quality.

A business that engages in a specialization produces fewer varieties of products.  It focuses on manufacturing goods and services that it has a comparative advantage. Due to specialization, the firm and its employees become experts in producing its products of choice. Consequently, it offers goods and services that are of a higher quality than a business that does not specialize.
