Economies of scale works on
the concept that when production cost is distributed relatively to larger
volume of units the production cost per unit lowers, this is the reason why
many firms opt for larger scale of production.
When production cost is distributed
to smaller volume of products the production cost per unit increases. For example,
retail companies like reliance always opt for this mechanism to lower down the
cost of production. And this is one of the main reasons why they are able to
give huge discounts to their customers while small firms cannot.
Economies of scope works on
the concept that sometimes producing a single product cannot give you adequate
profit therefore major MNC opt to produce multiple products consuming same input.
the principle behind this is that when production cost is distributed to many
products production cost of each product per unit decreases. This is one reason
why google provide multiple services like google map, google drive, Gmail.
