B 、Marginal

C 、Variable

View answer resolution

【Answer to question 1】B

【analysis】

B is correct. The concentration ratio for the top three companies would be 74%: A (30%) + B (25%) + G (12% + 7%).

A is incorrect. 72% is the concentration ratio of the top three companies if the two smallest merge: A (30%) + B (25%) + [E (10%) + F (7%)].

C is incorrect. 71% is the concentration ratio of the original top three companies: A (30%) + B (25%) + C (16%).

【Answer to question 2】C

【analysis】

C is correct. Shutdown is defined as a situation in which the firm stops production but still confronts the payment of fixed costs in the short run. In the short run, a business can operate at a loss as long as it covers its variable costs even though it is not earning sufficient revenue to cover fixed costs. If variable costs cannot be covered in the short run , the firm will shut down operations and simply absorb the unavoidable fixed costs.

B is incorrect. Marginal cost is the incremental cost of producing one more unit and can be calculated as either (Δ total cost/Δ quantity) or (Δ total variable cost/Δ quantity).

A is incorrect. In the short run, a business can operate at a loss as long as it covers variable costs even though it is not earning sufficient revenue to cover fixed costs.

成功=時間+方法，自制力是這個等式的保障。世上無天才，高手都是來自刻苦的練習(xí)。而人們經(jīng)常只看到“牛人”閃耀的成績，其成績背后無比寂寞的勤奮。小編相信，每天都在勤奮練習(xí)，即使是一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)的進(jìn)步，大家一定可以成為人人稱贊的“牛人”。
