Answer:
a. 1, 5 and 7
b. Resources will be allocated inefficiently
c. Differing sizes and capacities
d. Benefits due to economies of scale
e. Reduce prices and improve resource allocation.
Explanation:
The correct combination is 1, 5 and 7. The price of a pure monopoly firm is much higher than that of purely competitive firm because the later is a price taker while the former is a price fixer. Because of this, output of monopoly is lower while the profit margin is higher than that of competitive firm.
Assuming that a pure monopolist and a purely competitive firm have the same unit costs. In the case of a pure monopolist, resources will be allocated inefficiently because the monopolist does not produce at the point of minimum Average Total Cost and does not equate price and Marginal cost.
Even though both monopolists and competitive firms follow the MC = MR rule in maximizing profits, there are differences in the economic outcomes because pure competitors lack capacity and are smaller in size while the monopolist has the capacity to expand inorder to maximize profits.
The costs of a purely competitive firm and a monopoly may be different because the monopolist is capable of taking advantage of cost reduction arising from economics of scale. Pure competitors does not experience economies of scale due to their small sizes.
If a monopoly can experience economies of scale, it can reduce prices beyond that of the pure competitor thereby ensuring a more efficient resource allocation.
Answer:
First In, First Out (FIFO).
Explanation:
FIFO is an acronym for "First In, First Out" and it assumes oldest unit of inventory is sold first, meaning goods that were first added to inventory are the first goods removed from inventory for sale and are recorded as sold first.
FIFO can be defined as an accounting methods used in managing costs related to inventory, stock repurchases at different times and financial activities associated with monetary costs a company had tied up within inventory of feedstocks, raw materials, produced goods, and equipment parts.
Simply stated, FIFO is an accounting methods used for the valuation of the cost of goods sold and ending inventory of a company.
In a period of rising prices, the inventory method which tends to give the highest cost of goods sold value is First In, First Out (FIFO). This is because the more recent costs represent the higher (rising) net income and a higher (rising) inventory valuation costs.
