external economies r benefits like low transport costs, skilled labour,etc...which u get when a particular industry is localized. Overheads are the running costs

the supply is fixed so its vertical-demand is relatively inelastic-lol I got it wrong because i put supply infinite because I did it too fast^^

I have another question-whats a 'basis of taxation' or a 'tax base'? and what are commission payments?
and what is 'current income balance' and 'current transfer balance' well maybe what's the difference might be better-I know its related to BOP but...yeah help would be appreciated thanks :)

Hello ,

Can Someone plz explain the types of unemployment

Structural: Unemployment that results from a mismatch between supply and demand for workers.
Frictional: A type of unemployment explained by people being temporarily between jobs, searching for new ones.
Seasonal: In this case, like that of cyclical unemployment, the number of job-seekers exceeds the number of vacancies.
Cyclical: This refers to unemployment that rises during economic downturns and falls when the economy improves.

A multinational business is a form of PLC but one which produces in more than one country apart from its own. So basically yea it sells shares on stock exchange.
