Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": lowers unit costs.

Explanation:

Traditional manufacturing is the production process by which companies produce goods part to be delivered for sale and part to have them stored in case of shortages which could increase inventory costs.

lions [1.4K]

Answer: D. Restrictions on travel into and out of affected areas.

Explanation:

Restrictions on travel in and out of affected areas can lead to Scarcity in a Pandemic because there is no free movement of labour and capital.

With borders shut down, goods that were normally imported will suddenly become very hard to acquire because getting them through travel bans is very hard and in most cases, impossible.

Also affected are services as, for instance, the people who provided such services might live in or come from the place they provide said service to. Getting into those areas might prove too cumbersome a task thereby limiting Service provision.

Looking at the current Corona Virus Pandemic that has seen the most extensive Travel Restrictions by Countries in recent times and looking at the Scarcity being suffered by those same countries, drawing the conclusion that the Scarcity is as a result of an impediment to free movement of Goods and Services is most logical.

If a business is in need of working capital, one option is to use a(n) ________ that will buy the company's account receivables
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

factoring company

Explanation:

Factoring companies purchase your company's invoices (account receivables). When they do that, your company promptly receives a cash advance, instead of waiting for the usual 60, 90 day period to receive the full payment amount. Afterward, the factoring company collects the payment from your clients.

All of that is done for a fee to the factoring company (deducted from the full payment amount) and mostly with clients with whom it is normal to have longer payment periods. Factoring is an essential way to get bigger working capital.
