Business
1 answer:
lapo4ka [179]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

c. demanding managerial requirements and limited competitive advantage potential that cross-business strategic fit provides.

Explanation:

An unrelated diversification can be defined as a situation in which an existing business or company enters or invest in an entirely new business or industry that do not have any similarity whatsoever with its original business or product line. For example, an automobile manufacturing company that decides to acquire or invest in a clothing or shoe business.

Hence, the two biggest drawbacks or disadvantages of unrelated diversification are demanding managerial requirements and limited competitive advantage potential that cross-business strategic fit provides.

Also, the difficulties in successfully managing a collection of unrelated different business and having minimal competitive advantage potential over its rivals in the industry that cross-business strategic fit provides is another disadvantage of unrelated diversification

The cost, in dollars, to produce x designer dog leashes is C ( x ) = 8 x + 3 , and the price-demand function, in dollars per lea
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Profit maximising price = 48

Explanation:

Total Cost : C (x) = 8x + 3

Demand Curve : p (x) = 88 − 2x

Total Revenue = p (x). x  =  x (88 - 2x) = 88x - 2x^2

Profit maximisation is where Marginal Cost (MC) = Marginal Revenue (MR)

MC = d TC / d Q  =   d (8x + 3) / d x = 8

MR = d TR / d Q = d (88x - 2x^2) / d x = 88 - 4x

Equating MR & MC ,

88 - 4x = 8  , 88 - 8 = 4x

x = 80 / 4 , x = 20

Putting value in demand curve,

p = 88 - 2x = 88 - 2 (20) = 88 - 40

p = 48
