Answer:
C. The long-run average cost of production for U.K. grocery stores is lower if there are diseconomics of scale.

Answer: Trade Industries
Explanation:
Trade industries survive as long as people and businesses can afford to trade goods and services. If entities are unable to afford consumption for a reason such as a decline in income, the trade industries will suffer.

False. There is no legal contract without value consideration.
Explanation:
The following elements must be present to declare a contract legally binding and valid.
An offer for a good or service that is being exchanged, An acceptance of this offer, A consideration which is usually the value of the goods and services that are being exchanged.
While this transaction fulfills the offer and acceptance elements, the consideration or value specification is unfulfilled and as such there is no legally binding valid contract as the prices have not been specified before agreeing to transact.
