Answer: Please refer to Explanation.

Explanation:

Monopoly.

The 2 reasons why the monopoly’s marginal revenue will always be less than its price are;

a) Even though Monopolies have very large influence on the prices of goods and services they offer, for a Monopoly to sell more goods, they generally have to lower their prices. This will lead to a situation where Marginal Revenue, which is the additional revenue made per additional unit sold will be less than Price because additional revenue for a new unit will be less than the last one because prices are dropped .

b) A Monopoly's demand schedule is downward sloping. This means that demand rises as prices drop. As prices drop therefore, more goods will be sold but the marginal revenue will be less because prices had to be dropped to get an additional unit to be sold. That unit therefore will bring in less revenue than the last unit.

Perfectly Competitive Market

In such a market, the seller is a Price Taker. This means that sellers in this market do not sell at a price that they want but rather at a price the market has established to be the Equilibrium. This is because of the high competition in the market. Since they are all selling at the same price, this means that every additional revenue they get is the same as the price the market charges. This means that Price equals Marginal Revenue in this market.

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

more intense the competitive pressures posed by substitute products.

Explanation:

The lower the user's switching costs: the more intense the competitive pressures posed by substitute products.

Switching costs can be defined as the cost of a consumer switching from a product to a substitute good.

Therefore when such switching costs are low, it will be easier to switch from one product to another, implying that the competitive pressure from substitute goods are higher.

dybincka [34]

Answer:

1. What is the Commerce Clause?

The Commerce Clause refers to the power held by Congress to regulate interstate commerce. Individual states can regulate commerce that takes place within their territory, but they cannot regulate trade between entities from their state and entities from other states.

2. Will the Arizona regulation withstand Commerce Clause scrutiny? Why or why not?

This is an actual court case and the US Supreme Court ruled against Arizona's regulation because it interferes with interstate commerce. The cantaloupes that Bruce Church produced were supposed to be sold in California, that means that 2 states are involved. The Commerce Clause applies whenever trade between 2 states are involved. An individual state's regulations cannot result in a burden for businesses engaged in interstate commerce.

In an eight-hour day Nicolas can catch 24 pounds of fish or he can repair 15 cars. In an eight-hour day Alejandro can catch 27 p
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Here Nicolas will gain comparative advantage only when he is selling the good he is specializing in and he would specialize in that good which would have lower opportunity cost for him. So the first step that we have to do here is to find out for which good Nicolas will have lower opportunity cost.

For Nicolas who in 8 hours can either catch 24 pound of fish or repair 15 cars,

the opportunity cost for catching 1 fish is = 15/24 = .625

the opportunity cost for repairing 1 car is = 24/15 = 1.6

So from the above observation we can say that for Nicolas catching fish has lower opportunity cost for him , so he should specialize in catching fish.

Therefore the term of trade for Nicolas would be

1 fish = .625 cars ,

if he can catch and sell 100 units worth of fish then he would have to give up 62.5 cars and then only he will gain from trade,

1 x 100 fish = .625 x 100

100 fish = 62.5 cars.
