lord [1]

Using the diagram of the market for corn. If the price in this market is $2 per bushel, then there will be option A: a shortage of 8 thousand bushels.

<h3>What is the issue of the quantity demanded about?</h3>

Based on the image attached,  12 thousand bushels are being wanted at this price of  $2 per bushel, while 4 thousand bushels are being delivered.

These figures are also shown in the image above. Now when you contrast the quantity given and sought at this pricing. The quantity supplied (12) lower than the quantity demanded (4). Or, to put it another way, the quantity that producers want to sell is lower than the quantity that customers want to purchase.

Therefore, Since Qd > Qs, we refer to this as an excess demand scenario or shortage.

Hence, 12 - 4 = 8

So there is a a shortage of 8 thousand bushels in quantity supplied.

When Whitney took over her father's sporting goods store, she evaluated some of her father's vendor relationships. She found tha
kolezko [41]

Answer:

The answer is D. Open communication is key in building lasting relationships whether in business or in personal relationships.

Explanation:

For two companies to maintain a strategic relationship, there must be open communication.  Whitney displayed correct understanding of this ingredient for strategic relationships.

That was why she was open enough to work out a more amicable relationship with Rodney.  She discussed her sales goals and new ideas for the business.  On Rodney's part, he showed no interest.  He was not ready to discuss his own sales goals.

Rodney lost a golden opportunity offered by Whitney by opening up communication.  He should have embraced the chance to bring up his concerns and discuss his goals openly, unless he is hiding something.  He could be deliberately overcharging on price.  These comments remain mere guesses as Rodney failed to open up.

The prospect of greater market share and setting themselves apart from the competition is an incentive for firms to innovate and make better products. But no firm possesses a dominant market share in perfect competition. Profit margins are also fixed by demand and supply.

A perfectly competitive firm is a price taker, which means that it must accept the equilibrium price at which it sells goods. If a perfectly competitive firm attempts to charge even a tiny amount more than the market price, it will be unable to make any sales.
Perfect competition occurs when there are many sellers, there is easy entry and exiting of firms, products are identical from one seller to another, and sellers are price takers.
The market structure is the conditions in an industry, such as number of sellers, how easy or difficult it is for a new firm to enter, and the type of products that are sold.

Hope this helps:)
