Answer:

b

Explanation:

An Oligopoly is when there are few large firms operating in an industry. While, a monopoly is when there is only one firm operating in an industry.

Oligopolies are characterised by:

  • Firms that set the market price for their products
  • profit maximisation
  • high barriers to entry or exit of firms
  • downward sloping demand curve

87 octane gas in Durham is the same in each of the five stations, so the product is undifferentiated

A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogeneous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.  

A monopolistic competition is when there are many firms selling differentiated products in an industry.

A monopoly is when there is only one firm operating in an industry.

An example of a monopoly is a utility company

kakasveta [241]

The accounts and amounts that will be reported on the company's balance sheet as pension assets are:

1. Pension Plan Assets: The amount reported will be equal to the projected benefit obligation of the company.

2. Accrued Pension Benefit Liability: The amount reported will be equal to the difference between the projected benefit obligation and the pension plan assets.

The Pension Plan Assets account will be reported as the current market value of the pension plan assets.

The Accumulated Benefit Obligation account will be reported as the projected benefit obligation, which is the current value of the benefits that will be owed to employees in the future.

The difference between these two amounts is the company's net pension assets or liabilities.

For example, if the projected benefit obligation is $3 million and the pension plan assets are $2.5 million, the net pension assets would be reported as a liability of $0.5 million.

A mixed-market economy is one in which
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

both the government control and the private sector exist

Explanation:

The mixed-market economies are economies that have primarily developed from the command economies, but have implemented market economy elements as well. In this type of economies we have a situation where the governments still have a very important role in the economy, while in the same time, the private businesses are also thriving. The government is usually in control of the most important and abundant natural resources, thus providing security for the country's people and economy. The private businesses are able to operate freely, and they collaborate with the government as a business partner., with both of them being dependent on each other.
