so we can say that 60000 pounds are moved in March so cost will be

60000 pounds are move cost = 60000 × $0.6

60000 pounds are move cost = $36000

Discuss reasons why a business might choose to sell direct to customers through a website with e-commerce facilities, as opposed
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Businesses might prefer selling direct to customers through a website with e-commerce facilities because:

1. For covering a wider distance, distance is not a barrier.

2. For flexibility for customers, as some e-commerce even accepts cryptocurrency payments.

3. For product and price comparison.

4. For saving cost incurred from having fixed (physical ‘bricks and mortar') premises.

5. For saving the cost of paying workers.

6. For maintaining social distancing protocol given by the government especially during the pandemic. This doesn't put anyone at risk.

Explanation:

The question above asks for justifications why a business might choose to sell direct to customers through a website with e-commerce facilities rather than selling to customers through fixed (physical ‘bricks and mortar') premises.

First, selling to customers through a website with e-commerce facilities involve virtual transactions with customers paying for goods and services they are interested in over the internet. With this, customers can pay with their bank cards through e-commerce websites. While selling through fixed (physical ‘bricks and mortar') premises involve direct contact in-person with the customer and possibly payment is made in cash or through any other accepted methods.

Which economic system has economic roles that are passed from generation to generation?
mylen [45]
The best answer would be: traditional economy (specifically, it's definitely neither market economy nor command economy - in those economies the family does not necessarily play a role in the chose of roles).

An example of such strict economic roles is ancient India - and the roles are called castes.

What is the difference between direct and indirect competition?
elena55 [62]

Answer:

Direct competitors offer similar producst, Indirect competitors offer substitutes

Explanation:

Direct competition is when a business and its rivals provides similar goods or services and target the same clients. Since direct competitors offer the same products and services, they compete on other aspects such as price, quality, and service. Examples, two bakeries that produce bread and pastries are direct competitors.  Gas stations adjacent to each other are direct competitors as they both sell the same products. The same can be said of two companies providing internet services in the same town.

Indirect competition involves competing for the same customers in the same market but with slightly different products.  The goods and services offered by indirect competitors are similar or substitutes. Indirect competitors offer solutions to customers with similar needs. A fast-food shop and a restaurant are indirect competition. A customer who needs to eat may choose between having a snack or a meal from only one of two.   A bus company and taxi providers are indirect competitors.
