What is the difference between an Oligopoly and a Monopoly?

Business
1 answer:
Sergeeva-Olga [200]3 years ago
8 0

A monopoly and an oligopoly are economic market structures where there is imperfect competition in the market. A monopoly market contains a single firm that produces goods with no close substitute, with significant barriers to entry of other firms. An oligopoly market has a small number of relatively large firms that produce similar but slightly different products. Again, there are significant barriers to entry for other enterprises.

The geographical size of the market can determine whether there is an oligopoly or a monopoly. A firm may dominate an industry in a particular area where there are no alternatives to the same product but have two or three similar companies operating nationwide. Thus, the firm may be a monopoly in a region but operate in an oligopoly market in a larger geographical area.

The internal rate of return (IRR) refers to the compound annual rate of return that a project generates based on its up-front co
Sav [38]

Answer:

The answer and procedures of the exercise are attached in the following archives.

Explanation:

Consider this explanation too

The IRR is the project’s expected rate of return, assuming that intermediate cash flows also earn the IRR. If this return exceeds the cost of the capital invested in the project, the excess value goes to the firm’s shareholders. Therefore, independent projects whose IRR is greater than the WACC should be accepted.

Therefore in this case WACC of the project is 7% and IRR of the project is 1.86% which is less than WACC of the project. Hence the firm reject the project delta.

Calculation of IRR is based on Cash inflows and outflows for the number of years so that increase in cost of capital will not affect IRR.

The students in Mrs. Reed's English class are reading the same $760$-page novel. Three friends, Alice, Bob and Chandra, are in t
il63 [147K]

Answer:

456

Explanation:

Taking the number of pages Chandra reads as x; we formulate an equation:

In the equation below, 30 represents time taken by Chandra, 45 represents time taken by Bob and 760 is the number of pages in the novel.

Solving for x:

30x = 45(760-x) ;

30x = 34,200 - 45x

30x + 45x = 34,200

75x = 34,200

x = 34,200/ 75

x= 456

Therefore Chandra will need to read up to the 456 page.
