Answer:

D. there are reasonable substitutes for most goods.

A monopoly is when there is only one firm operating in the industry. There are also no subsituites for goods and services produced by the monopoly. The monopoly sets the price for his product and earns economic profit in the long and short run.

There aren't a lot of monopolies in the real world because most goods have substitutes. Therefore, consumers can substitute the monopoly product for another product and there isn't just one firm operating in the industry.

romanna [79]

Answer:

The need for organisations (which may be governmental or non-governmental) to improve the condition of living of people and protect their environment whilst they pursue increased profitability has been termed

The Triple Bottomline.

It is also referred to by economists as the 3P - People, Planet and Profit.

It speaks to the fact that other than the usual making financial success the sole metric of measurement by which organisations are evaluated, their impact on people and the environment should be considered as well.

<h3>What is meant by consent?</h3>

Consent refers to the parties' mutual comprehension of the terms of the agreement. The contract requires the voluntary assent of both parties. If there are certain mistakes, or if one party attempts to deceive or pressure the other, consent will not be considered voluntary or genuine.

The importance of consent in business-

Regardless of how you phrase it, consent helps us be more successful marketers.
It makes us "ethical" marketers who recognize that acting morally will increase our chances of success in addition to ensuring that we abide by the law.

The three sorts of consent that an organization may get are as follows:

Explicit Consent: An individual must be given a clear choice regarding whether to agree or object to the collection, use, or disclosure of their personal information in order to give their explicit consent.
Implicit Consent: Implied consent is consent that isn't explicitly given by a person but is instead inferred from their behavior and the specific facts and circumstances surrounding the scenario (or, in certain cases, from their silence or inactivity).
Opt-out Consent: Organizations do not need to get the user's consent before collecting and using their personal data if they have an opt-out consent.
