Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

The biggest and most notable reason why oligopolies exist is collaboration. A lot of Firms see more economic advantages in collaborating on a precise price than in trying to battle and drag price competitively with their competitors. By controlling prices in a cartel like way, oligopolies are able to raise their difficulty to entry.

A few oligopolists whose products I make use of are GMC, Samsung, Dell, Apple, UPS, and BP.

Oligopoly is differentiated from monopolistic competition in that oligopoly is comprised of a small number of businesses and they have distinguished or homogeneous products and trying to break-in into their line of business is very difficult.

Which statement best descnbes how an investor makes money of debt?.
olasank [31]

I believe the answer is: An investor makes money by earning interest.

When an agreement to borrow a certain amount of money is created, the borrower would receive the requested amount of money at the time that specified in the contract. (most likely used as capital to fund their business or to buy necessities).

In return, the borrower has to payback the money to the lender gradually, in a higher amount than he borrowed. The difference between the money borrowed and the money paid back is what's called as interest by the investors.
