Avalon's decision to __________ is a long run decision.
A. Move to Larger Space
B. Hire 15 more employees
Answer:
Option A. Move to Larger Space
Explanation:
The decision that alters only a single variable factor is considered as a short run decision. Labor, electricity usage, increased production are examples of variable factors. This means that increase in employees is a short run decision.
On the other hand, decision to increase or decrease the fixed factors are considered as long run decision because it is difficult to alter the decision and if we do so, then we will encounter heavy losses for a long period of time. Long run decision includes selling or purchasing or leasing of property, plant and equipment are considered as fixed factors.
In this case, Avalon is considering to move to a larger space which will result in significant increae in fixed cost. Hence it is fixed factor and is long run decision. Hence Option A is correct here.
