Answer:

Downward sloping curve with 300 intercept on mini sandwich axis, 150 intercept on melon spices

Explanation:

PPC reflects production combinations (2 goods), which can be produced given same resources & technology. It is downward sloping because of inverse relationship between two goods, one good increase leads to other good decrease - given same resources & technology.

In this case, it is with analogous factors : production possibilities with respect to unlimited ingredients (resources), limited time. Although resources are given to be unlimited, PPC is likely to be downward sloping : because of inverse relationship between goods - based on time constraint (one good increase will withdraw time from other good & reduce it).

The PPC intercept on X & Y axis represents the maximum amount of that axis good, which can be produced. So: it has 300 intercept on mini sandwich axis, 150 intercept on melon spice axis.

The slope & shape of PPC depends on Marginal Opportunity Cost, which depends on relative efficiency of resources in two goods.

Resources equally efficient - Constant Good Sacrifise Ratio i.e MOC - PPC straight line. Resources unequally efficient - Increasing Sacrifise Ratio (from efficient to inefficient good) i.e MOC rising - PPC Concave. Increasing Sacrifise Ratio (from inefficient resources to efficient resources) i.e MOC falling - PPC Convex.

If MOC between mini sandwiches & melon spices is constant, PPC is straight line . If MOC between them is rising, PPC is concave. If MOC between them is falling, PPC is convex.

Market Research

Explanation:

In a global business, <u>The firm often goes into uncharted territories for themselves and takes heavy risks in places unknown to them.</u> In such a situation market research done right is the best thing a firm can hope for apart from all other things.

A market not suitable for their products will simply not be beneficial no matter how everything else works out.

For example,<u> McDonald's setting up operations in India made its menu suit the Indian taste pallet and was able to carve out a market share</u> while other food chains were not as quick to do it.
