Is profit is generally adequate to finance the significant growth of a company?

A company's profits are a key method to finance growth by using those profits into research & development. Should a company require more funding to finance growth, then issuing corporate bonds and - or taking out loans will augment the funds needed for research & development. Growth can also be funded by buying another company which has large cash reserves and or products that are very profitable. Here, the buying company must make an attractive offer and create the financing to make this deal work.


How do monopolistic competitive firms fare in the long run in terms of earning potential compared to other market structures?

Monopolistic competitive firms generally have lower earning potential in the long run compared to firms in other market structures. This is because they face competition and have less control over prices due to product differentiation.


Is it easier for a perfectly competitive firm or for a monopolist to determine price?

A monopolist has more control over pricing because it is the sole provider of a good or service, allowing it to set prices based on its desired profit maximization strategy. In contrast, a perfectly competitive firm is a price taker, meaning it must accept the market price determined by the overall supply and demand. Therefore, it is generally easier for a monopolist to determine price compared to a perfectly competitive firm.


Why producers are price takers and not price makers?

Producers are not strictly price-takers. Generally, the more competitive a market is, the less pricing power a firm has, and the more of a price-taker it is than a price-maker. Since basic economic analysis usually focuses on a perfectly competitive market, a producer is a price-taker because it cannot change its price from the equilibrium condition Price = Marginal Cost = Marginal Revenue because it will be undersold by its competitors if it raises it price.

Do men really think women who augment their lips make them more attractive?

Generally, no. I am not sure where the practice comes from. However, there certainly are some who does enhance their appearance, but generally, it makes them look unnatural.

Women in sports lok masculine and unattractive?

Remember: 'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder'?To be competitive, women have to toughen up and that is not what society generally expects of a woman. Popular expectation is that she will be soft and warm and pretty and pure (etc). To many men in particular and women too no doubt, a strong and muscular woman will have some of the natural 'male' appearance aspects and so visually she may not appeal to the majority of people (in terms of how women are generally evaluated). So, many women (in sport) look masculine - TRUE, and unattractive - TRUE from some perspectives.Question for you: Would you rather be feminine and beautiful and live in obscurity in a shack in Africa, or masculine and 'unattractive' but lauded throughout the World as a fantastic athlete (think of some of the Kenyan and other African champion athletes....) and be wealthy and comfortable in life?
