Economies of Scale
- Economies of scale mean the cost advantage for a company when its production systems are efficient.
- JBH Electronics has efficient production systems, and it has leveraged this efficiency to lower the cost of products and increase profit margins.
- Lower prices attract more buyers leading to more sellers and hence increased profit.
- JBH Electronics could further leverage an efficient production system to increase production so that its profits continue soaring.
