What theory implies that you should allow another firm to perform work activities for your company if that company can do it more productively than you can?
a. theory of core competencies
b. theory of comparative advantage
c. theory of competitive advantage
d. theory of offshoring
e. theory of outsourcing

b.theory of comparative advantage

Explanation:

Comparative advantage theory uses the concept of opportunity cost to measure the efficiency of each firm in producing a good or service. If Company A has a higher opportunity cost than Company B in producing a service, it is best to let Company B perform this service, while A must specialize in another activity. This may apply to companies that have the option of producing components of their final product or outsourcing these components. If the opportunity cost of a third party firm is lower, that firm will be more efficient in producing that component. Then the company can use its time and resources for other activities and purchase the outsourced firm's component. This way, the firm will be allowing another company to do part of the business because that other company is more productive in that particular service.

answer: what do you mean

explanation:

well, paralell is parallel. i am providing links to .

hope this !

a series circuit is one with all the loads in a row. there is only one path for the electricity to flow. if this circuit was a string of light bulbs, and one blew out, the remaining bulbs would turn off.

unlike in series circuits, a charge in a parallel circuit encounters a single voltage drop during its path through the external circuit. the current through a given branch can be predicted using the ohm's law equation and the voltage drop across the resistor and the resistance of the resistor.

a parallel circuit has certain characteristics and basic rules: a parallel circuit has two or more paths for current to flow through. voltage is the same across each component of the parallel circuit.
