Answer:

The answer is "$5500".

Explanation:

Analysis Differential:  

                                             Make                            Buy

Cost of variable                        800\times 7 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \ = 5600  

Fixed- cost                             16000\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 16000

Purchasing cost                                                    800\times 12\ = 9600

Cost of opportunity            \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 9500  

Total relevant cost                    31100 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  25600

Increasing operating income = 31100-25600 = 5500

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Many

Homogenous

There are no barriers

Have perfect knowledge

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods. Because there are many sellers of homogenous goods, firms are price takers.

Because there are no barriers to entry, in the long run, firms earn zero economic profit.

Because buyers and sellers have perfect knowledge of prices, price arbitrage isn't possible.

Public goods are non-excludable items so there is fair game for anyone and everyone in the market for an item to make this purchase.  Because this items are everywhere, there is normally a decent amount of competing brands with the same product though packaging, quality and quantity can differentiate.
