Answer:
monopoly, but self-interest often drives them closer to the competitive outcome.
Explanation:
An oligopoly exists when a small number of firms control the resources and price in a market.
They tend to stop each other from having significant influence in the market.
Because of this self interest their monopolistic attribute tends to become more towatds a competitive outcome.
So no one firm has the monopoly of the market rather influence is shared
Answer:
a. What is the MRP?
marginal revenue product = marginal product of labor x marginal revenue per output unit
MRP = 1,500 packages x $0.10 per package = $150
marginal resource cost (MRC) = $100 (the cost of renting the delivery truck)
The company should add the delivery truck because MRP is higher than MRC.
b. Now suppose that the cost of renting a vehicle doubles to $200 per day. What are the MRP and MRC in this situation?
MRP = $150 (doesn't change from question a)
MRC = $200 (the cost of renting the delivery truck)
The company should not add the delivery truck because MRP is less than MRC.
c. Next suppose that the cost of renting a vehicle falls back down to $100 per day, but, due to extremely congested freeways, an additional vehicle would only be able to deliver 750 packages per day. What are the MRP and MRC in this situation?
MRP = 750 packages x $0.10 per package = $75
MRC = $100
The company should not add the delivery truck because MRP is less than MRC.
Answer:

Answer:
Cash= 87,910 + 9.3*direct labor hour
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The variable overhead rate is $9.30 per direct labor-hour. The company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $106,140 per month, which includes depreciation of $18,230.
Cash= (106,140 - 18,230) + 9.3*direct labor hour
Cash= 87,910 + 9.3*direct labor hour
