Microsoft is one of the leading software companies. Prior to 2000, Microsoft’s share of the market for personal computer operating systems stood above 80 per cent. However, since the twenty-first century Microsoft’s market share has steadily declined to 40 per cent. This is due to the rise in competing software producers such as Apple macOS (10%), Google's Android OS (35%), Linux Operating System (35%), and Apple iOS (5%). The market share of each company is provided in parentheses. Google and Linux have decided that it would be in their best interest to work together to serve the market. This is not common knowledge to the person’s outside of the companies. State what market structure existed prior to the 2000 and illustrate how equilibrium price and quantity are determined in this industry.

“In the United States more than 50 firms produce textiles, but only 3 produce automobiles. This statistic shows that government antimonopoly policy has been applied more harshly to the textile industry than to the automobile industry.” Provide an alternative explanation for the difference in the number of firms in the two industries.
One of the oldest principles of marketing is that sellers may sell features, but buyers essentially buy benefits. This is a distinction sometimes lost on technology ledorganizations, and the service sector is no exception. Recent experience of the UK’s largest telecommunications company, Della’s, illustrates how crucial it is to see service offers in terms of the benefits they bring to customers. The company was aware of extensive research which had found high levels of confusion among purchasers of mobile phones, with a seemingly infinite permutation of features and prices. With four main networks to choose from, dozens of tariffs and hundreds of handsets, it is easy to see why buyers sought a way of simplifying their buying process. Throughout the 1990s, Della’s had positioned its UK network as superior technically to its competitors. Advertising focused on high coverage rates and call reliability.Della’s was the UK's most popular mobile phone operator, with almost eight million…
Some MPs believe that there is a causal relationship between earnings and years of schooling. They show you an estimate of the impact of years of schooling on annual earnings: There are two groups of individuals – group 1 and group 2. Group 1 on average earns £60,000 per year with the average level of post-compulsory education of 6 years, while group 2 earns on average £40,000 with the average post-compulsory education of 4 years. The MPs conclude that the annual return to an additional year of education is 25% using the following equation [(£60,000-£40,000)/40,000]/(6-4)=25%. Ignoring time preferences and discounting, and if both groups face the same cost of schooling, you need to explain to the MPs why this is not a good estimate of the annual return to an additional year of education. Propose methods to the MPs to deal with the problem. (300 words)
A company sells three types of products for $20, $15, and $10 per unit. In 1 year, the total revenue for the three products was $2090, which corresponds to the sale of 153 units. The company sold half as many units of the $20 product as units of the $15 product. How many units of each product were sold? How much revenue came from the $20 unit The number of twenty dollar units sold was .The number of fifteen dollar units sold was .The number of ten dollar units sold was .The revenue from the $20 units was
The U.S. Census Bureau conducts annual surveys to obtain information on the percentage of the voting-age population that is registered to vote. Suppose that 679679 employed persons and 690690 unemployed persons are independently and randomly selected, and that 429429 of the employed persons and 369369 of the unemployed persons have registered to vote. Can we conclude that the percentage of employed workers ( p1p1 ), who have registered to vote, exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers ( p2p2 ), who have registered to vote? Use a significance level of α=0.05α=0.05 for the test. Step 5 of 6 : Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis H0H0. Round the numerical portion of your answer to three decimal places.

Statistical discrimination or "rational discrimination" means the following: Group of answer choices Statistics regarding discrimination is routinely falsified. When the statistical concept of "averages" is used to set higher auto insurance rates for a 19-year-old than for a 40-year old, even if the 19-year old is a better driver than the 40-year old one. Statistics are routinely used selectively with the specific purpose of discriminating against ethnic minorities. It is discriminatory to use statistics to understand social conditions.
