Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

EOQ: 80

order per year: 10

Explanation:

We need to solve for the Economic Order Quantity:

Q_{opt} = \sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H}}

Where:

D = annual demand = 800

S= setup cost = ordering cost = 16

H= Holding Cost = 4

Q_{opt} = \sqrt{\frac{2 \times 800 \times 16}{4}}

EOQ = 80

Orders per year = 800 demand/ 80 order size= 10

Price discrimination is the practice of charging different prices for the same product that are not justified by cost difference
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

<h2>Because firms in a perfectly competitive market does not have any price making ability or market power,they are not able to engage in any price discrimination.Hence,the correct answer is  the last option or True,because perfectly competitive firms have no market power.</h2>

Explanation:

In Microeconomics,perfectly competitive markets are characterized by many buyers and sellers in which the sellers and firms usually sell homogeneous or identical products.Now,as there are many firms in the market and no barriers to entry for new firms into the market,the market competition or rivalry is high and hence,no single firm has the ability to determine and manipulate the market price according to their own economic advantage because if any firm tries to do so,it will loose significant market share as most customers would move to other sellers/firms charging lower price or regular market price.Therefore,the market price is fixed in the perfectly competitive market as the firms do not have price making or market power.Consequently,they are not able to charge different prices to different customers according to their maximum willingness to pay or differences in price preferences.
