Firms
Akopọ
Firms come in every shape and size, from a single hairdresser to a global giant like Toyota or Walmart. They are the engines that turn the factors of production into the goods and services we buy. Understanding how firms are classified, why some stay small while others grow huge, and what happens to their costs as they expand is central to microeconomics.
In this lesson you will classify firms by sector and by ownership, weigh up the strengths of small versus large firms, and learn the three types of merger. Then you will dig into economies and diseconomies of scale: why average costs fall as a firm grows, and why they eventually rise again. By the end you will be able to analyse a firm's size and growth like an examiner.
