Economies And Diseconomies Of Scale
Akopọ
A small bakery pays full price for a 25 kg bag of flour, while a supermarket chain negotiates a fraction of that cost per kilogram because it orders by the tonne. That price gap is the essence of economies of scale, and it explains why larger firms can often undercut smaller rivals on price while still turning a profit.
In this lesson you will explore how average costs fall as a business grows, distinguish six types of internal economy and four external economies, and discover why expansion beyond a certain point can actually push costs back up. You will also examine the practical barriers that stop some businesses from growing at all.

- Understand economies of scale: internal (falling average total costs as output increases) and external (falling average total costs due to external factors)
