За домовленістю, все майно цієї компанії буде запропоноване на продаж за цінами нижче ринкових. Це трапляється дуже часто, коли компанії конкуренти „охоплюють” ринок та одержують повну монополію на продаж своїх товарів.
Добре обміркований та виправданий ризик іноді приносить високий прибуток.
Попит на цей товар був створений штучно, тому поточна ціна почала різко падати. Але втручання уряду на місцевому рівні стимулювало купівлю та створило такі ринкові умови, щоб витрати були компенсовані.
Запас продукції та її пропозиція – різні речі. Ми не повинні їх плутати. Запас – це кількість товару, який має продавець, а пропозиція - це кількість, яку він має бажання продати.
Працездатне населення по всьому світі вимагає підвищення заробітної платні.
Фірми перетворюють надлишок на капітал та розподіляють його між вкладниками.
Кількість зернових, які фермери зібрали цього року, призвела до затоварювання ринку, тому держава встановила тверді ціни на їх продаж.
Ціни на паливо коливаються, тому власники заправок змінюють ціни на пальне, щоб пристосувати їх до ринкових умов.
