You are considering opening a pizza restaurant in your town. Describe the
production process that you envision taking place to deliver a fully cooked pizza to a
customer. What components would be in the supply chain? What production
process would you use? What kind of quality controls need to be in place?
Can you answer the statement with it depends:
Manufacturing highly standardised products are usually more profitable in high context cultures due to economies of scale.
Suppose there's a firm considering expanding to foreign. The demand it faces at home is P = 9-3Q and the demand at foreign is P = 7-4Q. Given the technology the marginal cost is MC = 1, and the transport cost to move a unit of good across the two countries is t = 1. Fixed cost connected to R&D is F = 3 and the cost of a production plant is Pe = 1. There are no other costs. Calculate the profits if a) the expansion of the firm is through a horizontal multinational and b) if it is through a vertical multinational. What will the firm choose?

- Hi! I need some help with this. I'm not for sure where to even start... thank you.arrow_forwardMr. Nyugen Ho is a Vietnamese entrepreneur who started a clothing factory in Vietnam. After two years of good business within the country's local markets, there was a huge demand for his clothes in the international markets like Canada, Australia, Japan, United States and France. But he didn't want to sell his products outside Vietnam - he has never travelled outside his country as there was always a fear of losing face (fearing that people will not respect him and will hate him for the race he belongs to). He always felt that if he set his business outside his country, he would feel unwelcomed and that his business would be attacked and exploited. Moreover, he felt that he would feel alienated (feeling different/lonely) in new surroundings. What problem is Mr. Nyugen experiencing?

- In a fishery the long-run harvest function (harvest volume) is H(E) = aE – bE², with a, b representing positive constants and E is fishing effort. - Total cost is TC(E)= cE,with c being the unit cost of effort. Total revenue is TR(E) = pH(E), with p being the constant price of fish. Suppose that, because of an increase in world demand, the price of the fish from this fishery rises significantly. • Illustrate and explain the impact of this price-increase on the fish stock and the competitive level of effort (or employment) in the fishery. What can be said about the long-run impact on the fish catch? Is it positive, negative, or indeterminate?
