The industrial organization (I/O) model of above-average returns:

Business
1 answer:
lara [203]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The answer is A) Puts emphasis on the external environment, which plays a role in determining a company´s ability to achieve above-average returns.

Explanation:

The I/O Model of Above-Average Returns basically assumes that the industry in which a company decides to compete in has a much larger influence on performance (earnings and profit) than the choices the managers of this company make.

The basic assumptions of this organization model are:

  • The external environment imposes pressures and constraints that determine the strategies of the company and will result in above average returns.
  • It assumes competing companies control similar strategically relevant resources and pursue similar strategies.
  • Resources are highly mobile across companies, so that any differences that might develop between companies will be short-lived.
  • Decision-makers within the company are assumed to be rational and committed to acting in the company´s profit-maximizing behaviors.

Consider a file whose size varies between 4 kb and 4 mb during its lifetime. which of the three allocation schemes (contiguous,
uranmaximum [27]
Table/indexed.  
Let's look at the three options and see what their advantages and disadvantages are:  
Contiguous - In this scheme, the file is stored in contiguous blocks of the disk. It allows for easy random access of the data, but requires a contiguous sequence of blocks large enough to handle the entire file. Since the size of the file specified in this question varies quite a bit over it's lifespan, you're either going to be wasting a lot of space by having an allocation large enough to handle the maximum sized file, or the file will need to be copied whenever it grows and "bumps" into a file that was allocated after it. Because of this, this method is not the best.  
Linked - The file is stored as a single, or double linked list of file blocks. This allows for the file to grow or shrink as needed, using only the amount of space needed for the file. Unfortunately, this storage scheme doesn't allow for random access of the file contents and the file can only be accessed sequentially. The question for this problem doesn't specify how the file is being accessed, so as long as random access isn't required, then this would be a reasonable allocation scheme. But I'm assuming that random access will be required, in which case, this scheme isn't ideal.  
table/indexed - In this scheme, some disk blocks are used as tables to point to other disk blocks that actually contain the file data. It's almost as fast as contiguous allocation for random access of the file contents, yet allows for the growth and shrinkage of a file like linked allocation. As such, it handles all use cases at a relatively minor cost in total storage required. So this would be the most appropriate allocation scheme since the file access behavior wasn't specified in this question.

What is a marketing strategy in which the focus is on small but profitable market segments?
Goryan [66]

Niche marketing strategy is a marketing strategy in which the focus is on small but profitable market segments.

Niche marketing is defined as the strategy of channelizing  all the marketing efforts towards one well-defined segment of the population. There is one important thing to understand that ‘niche’ does not exist, but  it is created by a smart marketing technique and identifying what the customer wants.

This can be done if the company knows what the customer needs and then tries to deliver a better solution to a problem which was not presented by other firms. A niche market does not mean a small market, but it involves specific target audience with a specialized offering.
