Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": competitive barrier.
Explanation:
Competitive barriers represent obstacles for a business to start operations based on what other companies are already providing to the market. The settled companies -competitors- tend to have a preference and market share obtained through years of operations which is a threat for a new company that is looking for attracting consumers.
Answer:
This is really a personal opinion, since whether it is correct to send people to mars or not depends largely on your point of view and personal beliefs. Clearly, humans are far more capable than robots, and they can explore space and eventually other planets much better than a rover. On the other hand, sending people to Mars is not only extremely expensive, but it is also extremely dangerous for the astronauts themselves.
Imagine so many people died trying to get to space and then to the moon, and that was very easy compared to getting to Mars and back.
We can find millions of better ways to use the money than sending people to space, and that is really hard to argue against. Our planet, our country, state or even city could all benefit and use the money more productively.
But lets say that we do not care about the money because Mr. Bezos or some other billionaire decided to donate it. Now we would face the technical issues of going to Mars and actually staying there for a long time. A trip to mars is not something that would be carried out for just a couple of hours (like moon walking). Astronauts will have to stay in Mars for weeks, months or even years before they can return. This results in an extreme danger to their health due to cosmic rays. Can humans survive long term exposure to cosmic rays? The answer is NO and Mars's atmosphere doesn't help.
If we analyze this situation from a technical point of view, it would be better and safer to send astronauts to Titan (Saturn's moon), and would probably be also more useful. Titan's environment is similar to Earth's in many ways, and if we are actually doing it for a scientific purpose besides simply being curious, then it is much more useful to go to Titan. The scientific purpose of going to mars instead of other possible destinations is not very solid. Mars is really different to Earth and unless someone finds Martians living there, there is not much you can do.
The value of the best choice is called ' Opportunity Cost' in economics.
A fiscal year, is a 12-month financial planning period that may or may not coincide with the calendar year.
Explanation:
A fiscal year to the government is just like a financial year for a company/corporation.
A government can have a fiscal year from the middle of a year (July) to the next year (June) which in total is 12 months.
Sometimes a fiscal year coincide with the calendar year but that does not acknowledge the fact that is must be a calendar year.
This fiscal period are a planned period to take up projects or meet budgets.
Answer:
The cost of opportunity is 4 pancakes.
Explanation:
The cost of opportunity is by definition the amount of things you don't do or buy, because of choosing doing or buying something else. In this case, Maria can make:
This means that at every moment, she can choose to make or 8 pancakes or 2 waffles, but not both. If we continue with this logic, in the time she could make 1 waffle, she could have chosen to make 4 pancakes. This is her cost of opportunity.
