June 6, 2014 at 2:15 pm #174634Is it any reducing cost can be said is economic of scale such as reduce labour cost, overhead cost and etc?
September 16, 2014 at 8:49 pm #195194Sometimes,I would argue,its hard to separate cost reductions due to scale factor alone from other factors.Geometrical economies of scale would be an example of pure economy of scale.If for example a cubic shaped furnace was doubled in size the amount of metal(other things being equal)used in its manufacture would increase by a factor of four while the volume of the furnace would increase by a factor of eight.
