Answer:

B. Fewer workers will be needed.

Explanation:

Elastic demand refers to a flexible demand. It is a demand that can increases or decreases due to several factors. If demand is not elastic, it implies it is constant. An increase or decrease in output or price will not affect the quantity demanded.

An increase in productivity means an increase in output per worker. It is the increase in the number of units produced, per hour, per worker. An increase in productivity results in more output in a given period than previously.

If the demand is constant and there is an increase in productivity, only a few workers will be required. The output from the few workers will be high to meet the constant demand.

A company looking to expand internationally with little risk would choose?
leva [86]

Answer:

  • Licensing
  • Franchising

Explanation:

There are no options but Licensing as well as Franchising are some of the least riskiest ways to expand internationally.

With Licensing, the company looking to expand simply sells licenses to various companies in different countries giving them the right to use their image. Basically, the company the license is sold to gets access to the seller's intellectual property but then can run their business with a significant degree of autonomy.

Franchising represents another way to expand with little risk. It involves a company giving a license to another company to sell and sometimes produce their products as well as image rights. The company will give the franchisee (company that gets the license) the knowledge and training required to maintain the franchise and in exchange, franchisee pays a fee.

Both of these methods ensure that the name and brand of a company spread internationally whilst making money from it. Risk is minimized because the investment in other countries is low to nothing.
