Answer:

B) False

Explanation:

That would be a monopoly (only one supplier).

An oligopoly is a market where there are very few suppliers, and competition is very limited since the barriers to entry are very significant.

For example, the automobile industry is an oligopoly. There are only a few car manufacturers in the world, and they all are very large corporations. It costs hundreds of millions of dollars to introduce a new car model, and every time that happens, the corporations must carry on expensive advertising and promotional campaigns.

Explanation:

A country operating a fixed-exchange rate system would be actively trading its currency to ensure that it remains at a certain rate. If the currency is overvalued, it means that the currency is actually weak and is being propped up by the company's actions in the forex market.

A reason for the weakness would be that the supply is higher than the demand of the currency which means that, as per the rules of supply and demand, the currency is trading at a lower price, i,e., it is weak.

PRESENT

Average time =59 minutes

Cost=59 minutes x$1.30 per minute

Cost = $76.7

Productivity (per $input)=$400/$76.7

Productivity (per $input)= $5.21

COMPANY – A

Average time= (59 minutes-16 minutes)

Average time=43 minutes

Cost= 43 minutes x $1.30 per minute + $3.60

Cost=$55. 9+$3.60

= $59.50

Productivity (per $input)=$400/$59.50

Productivity (per $input) = $6.72

COMPANY – B

Average time= (59 minutes - 17 minutes)

Average time=42 minutes

Cost= 42 minutes x $1.30 per minute + $5.60

Cost=$54. 6+$5.60

= $60.20

Productivity (per $input)=$400/$60.20

Productivity (per $input) = $6.64

Summary

PRESENT:Productivity (per $input)= $5.21

COMPANY – A:Productivity (per $input) = $6.72

COMPANY – B:Productivity (per $input) = $6.64

Therefore COMPANY – A with the amount of $6.72 would have the higher productivity in terms of revenue per dollar of input because it has the highest amount.
