how does minimum efficient scale factor into the number of aircraft concrete manufacturers in the united states?
□ aircraft plants can be staffed by a small number of workers.
□ the economies of scale for concrete manufacturing are exhausted before they grow very large.
□ concrete manufacturing requires modest economies of scale.
□ concrete plants have a very limited distribution range.
□ aircraft manufacturing requires large economies of scale.

Explanation:

The minimum - efficient scale is related to economies of scale. Economies of scale for concrete manufacturing being exhausted early, requiring modest economies of scale, and having a limited distribution range can affect the number of manufacturers. Aircraft manufacturing's large economies of scale also play a role as it impacts the overall industry structure related to concrete for aircraft. The number of workers in aircraft plants is not directly related to the minimum - efficient scale factor for concrete manufacturers.

Answer:

The economies of scale for concrete manufacturing are exhausted before they grow very large.
Concrete manufacturing requires modest economies of scale.
Concrete plants have a very limited distribution range.
Aircraft manufacturing requires large economies of scale.
