Answer: Overall Cost Leadership

Explanation:

Porter posited that one way a company can attain a competitive advantage in an industry is by overall cost leadership.

This means that the company needs to be able to produce goods and services in a cheaper and more efficient way than its competitors because then it can sell its products for cheaper prices and capture more market share.

One way of achieving cost leadership is by constructing efficient, large-scale facilities that will enable the company to take advantage of economies of scale and achieve less costs per unit.

Nikolay [14]

Answer: $44,000

Explanation:

The following information can be gotten from the question:

Cash dividends declared for the year = $40,000

Cash dividends payable at the beginning of the year = $17,000

Cash dividends payable at the end of the year = $13,000

Therefore, the amount of cash paid for dividends was:

= $40,000 + $17,000 - $13,000

= $57,000 - $13,000

= $44,000
