(See Solution) The equation below gives the degree of economies of scope (SC) SC=(C(Q_1)+C(Q_2)-C(Q_1,Q_2))/(C(Q_1),Q_2) where C(Q 1) is the cost of producing


Question: The equation below gives the degree of economies of scope (SC)

\[SC=\frac{C\left( {{Q}_{1}} \right)+C\left( {{Q}_{2}} \right)-C\left( {{Q}_{1}},{{Q}_{2}} \right)}{C\left( {{Q}_{1}},{{Q}_{2}} \right)}\]

where C(Q 1 ) is the cost of producing output Q 1 , C(Q 2 ) is the cost of producing output

Q 2 , and C(Q 1 , Q 2 ) is the joint cost of producing both outputs. If SC is negative:

  1. There are neither economies nor diseconomies of scope.
  2. There are economies of scope.
  3. There are diseconomies of scope.
  4. There are both economies and diseconomies of scope.
