Business
1 answer:
butalik [34]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Reducing the costs of production.

Explanation:

New product development is a procedure that requires a huge first time cost of production. The product might need new technology and new means to produce.

For example, even just to come up with a new flavor for an already existing brand of chips, new raw materials, storage space, more labor, new tools and equipment, increased marketing cost is required. This poses an increase in cost and certainly not a decrease in the cost of production.

If we assume that both countries specialize according to their comparative advantage, then how do we find a terms of trade that
levacccp [35]

Answer:

The best way to find terms of trade that will ensure that two entities are in the best terms of trade will be to look at the opportunity costs of the various products they produce.

A high opportunity cost in one product relative to that of the other entity means the entity with the higher opportunity cost should be trading with the entity with the lower opportunity cost and vice versa.

For example, assume that an entity "A" produces both rice and beans whilst an entity "B" also produces rice and beans too.

If the opportunity cost to A of producing Beans is 300 bags of rice whilst the opportunity cost to B of producing Beans is 120 bags of rice, and the opportunity cost to A of producing rice is 180 bags of beans whilst it is 250 bags of beans to B, the principles of comparative advantage require that A should focus more on producing rice and purchase beans from B whilst B should focus more on producing beans and purchase rice from A.

Cheers!

Economic agents who generate externality are distinct from those who experience them.
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

The statement is: True.

Explanation:

Externalities are described as the effect of the actions of one party that influence directly in other individuals even if those other individuals have nothing to do in the operations of the first party. Externalities can be positive when they benefit the uninvolved individuals or negative when the externality affects them.

There are several types of externalities such as <em>technological, pecuniary, symmetric, asymmetric, transferable, depletable, non-depletable </em>and <em>transnational.  </em>

Asymmetric externalities are those where the party causing the externality is not affected by its actions. It opposes symetric externalities which are those where the economic agent is directly affected by its own actions.
