Answer:
D. the supplier will make a profit that would no longer belong to the business
Explanation:
A make or buy decision can be defined as a strategic approach pertaining to making the choice to either produce (manufacture) a product in-house (internally) or purchasing the product from an external supplier. Thus, the make component typically deals with producing the product internally while the buy component strictly has to do with outsourcing or purchasing from an external supplier.
Some of the factors to be considered in a make or buy decision are;
I. Cost savings.
II. Quality issues with the supplier.
III. Future growth in the plant and other production opportunities.
Hence, all of the aforementioned should be considered in a make or buy decision except whether the supplier will make a profit that would no longer belong to the business.

Answer:
Design Capacity Utilization= 75%
Production efficiency = 120%
Explanation:
Okay, so the question is to determine both the design and the effective capacity utilization measures and make a conclusion from there
1. The Capacity Utilization = The Actual Output/ Design Capacity
Actual Output= 300 hamburgers a day
Design Capacity = 400 Hamburgers a day
Therefore Capacity Utilization = 300 hamburgers/400 hamburgers x 100
= 75%
2. The Efficiency of the production = The Actual Output / The Effective Capacity
Actual Output = 300 Hamburgers a day
Effective Capacity = 250 hamburgers
= 300 Hamburgers/ 250 Hamburgers x 100
= 120%
Conclusion
First we see that the actual utilization of capacity is more better than the effective capacity and this is good. Also, the Design Capacity is higher than the actual capacity utilization which should also be expected as design capacity is a calculation based on ideal conditions that may be not realistic in real life conditions.
Answer:
Option C is the correct Option.
Explanation:
First of all, let me clear it to you that, it is a multiple choice question with 5 options in it.
Question Statement:
Why would it be economically efficient to require a natural monopoly to charge a price equal to marginal cost?
Solution:
The correct answer to this question is option C .
Option C = Economic efficiency requires the last unit of a good produced to provide an additional benefit to consumers equal to the average cost of producing it
Reasoning:
The marginal value of the last unit of output delivered to consumers is equal to the marginal cost of production. The overall welfare surplus is maximized, including both user and producer surpluses. There is no loss of dead weight.
Answer:
It is difficult to estimate the marginal social benefits of supplying a public good.
Explanation:
A public good will always be beneficial to the society. However, the exact <u>social benefits</u> it brings cannot be exactly (quantitatively) measured. The costs behind the creation of such a good can be measured (e.g. How much of funding is needed to build a hospital in a village?).
On the other hand, the marginal social benefit for each unit of resources invested cannot be identified (e.g. How many people would benefit for a million dollars invested?).
