Answer:
A) A firm in an oligopolistic market has to consider its own impact on price when making production decisions
Explanation:
A perfectly competitive market is a market with many firms selling identical product. There are free entry and free exist and the decision of a firm does not affect the price in the market as all firms are price takers. Therefore, each firm is independent under perfectly competitive market and production decisions of a firm in a perfectly competitive market does not affect the price in the market nor will it cause any reaction from other firms.
However, Oligopolistic market is a market where there are few firms which are 3 or more firms but not more than 20 firms selling identical or differentiated product.. Firms in oligopolistic market are interdependent which implies that the decision of one firm can affect price and this can cause reaction from other firms and then lead to a price war. A price war occurs when each firm continually reduces its own price in order to increase its market share which causes other firms to react reducing their own prices and this will make none of the firms to gain in the end. In order to avoid the price war, each firm in an oligopolistic market has to consider its own impact on price when making production decisions.

Productivity per unput dollar=Fees charged from clients/total cost to firm
There are 3 options:
1. Using current software:
Av time=40 min
Researcher's cost=$2 a min

Productivity per dollar input=400/63.5=6.3
3.
Using company B's software
Av time = 28 min
Cost of reducing av time=$3.6

Answer:
Brand Competition
Explanation:
Brand Competition arises when two or more different companies offer a similar product, under a different brand. The products are similar, but not fully substitutes: they can be distinguished in some way: quality, features, price, and so on.
In this case, what makes the Ford Mustang and the Audi R8 is the price. The Ford brand is significantly cheaper than the Audi brand, which might give Ford the upper hand in market share. However, this is not always the case because the Audi car could have the upper hand when it comes to quality, and obtain more marke share because of that.
