Answer:

These are correct:

  • Smaller companies with smaller production processes have higher per unit costs than larger companies. - smaller firms find it harder to adopt economies of scale to reduce costs.
  • Over time, a firm takes control of 85% of the world’s supply of a chemical used in the production of plastic. - the firm has almost total control over a scarce resource, and new competitors have to scramble for the remaning 15%. (note: this is a natural barrier to entry as long as the pharmaceutical company did not collude with the government to reach such a high market share, in said case, it would be an artificial barrier to entry).
  • Lenders are hesitant to provide funding for new firms that will compete with a large, well-established firm. - a small firm may lack market credibility in the financial markets, because investors are hesitant about the future of the company, or do not expect high rates of return.
