Answer:

MHI and Deloitte Survey

Cost Reduction #1 Priority

True

Explanation:

For supply chain companies to achieve their profit targets, they need to curtail costs.  Consumers are not ready to absorb much costs as they are presented with low-priced alternatives.  The competition for customers among supply chain organizations is very high.  Everyone competes for the dollar the consumer is willing to spend on goods.  With property and advertising costs skyrocketing, careful management of the cost structure is required.

Vesna [10]

The plans that must be involved are the strategic planning, the mid level, the low level, the operational planning, the top level planning.

A competitive firm currently produces and sells 7,500 units of output at a price of $2.50 per unit. The firm's average fixed cos
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

A. $-2,250

B. The firm should continue to operate in the short run because price is greater than average variable cost

C.The firm should exit in the long run because it is making losses

D. In the long run, prices would increase because in a competitive firm, price must equal average cost. As firms exit the industry, supply would fall and this would lead to an excess of demand over supply. As a result, price would rise

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.

In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.

Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.

Profit = Total revenue - Total cost

( $2.50 -  $2.80) × 7,500 = $-2,250

The firm is earning a loss

A firm should shutdown in the short run if price is less than average variable cost.

Average variable cost = average total cost- average total cost

 $2.80 - $0.75 = $2.05

2.50 > 2.05 so the firm should continue to operate in the short run.

The firm should exit in the long run because it is making losses

In the long run, prices would increase because in a competitive firm, price must equal average cost

I hope my answer helps you.

Sloan [31]

Answer: C.  People are rational.

Explanation:

Economic theory assumes that people are rational when making economic decisions. This means that they will seek to make a decision that can satisfy them the most or give them the highest benefit.

This benefit does not always have to be monetary, it can also be emotional. The U.S. customers who prefer made in America products would therefore be emotionally satisfied by the decision of these manufacturing companies to move back to the U.S. and will patronize them more.

This decision to move back was therefore based on people being rational.
