单词 economies of scope
释义
economies of scope

Geography
  • The economies or benefits that firms derive by producing particular combinations of output. These exist if one firm can produce two separate products more efficiently than two firms can independently produce them separately. ‘Economies of scope resemble economies of scale but operate in a different manner. Whereas economies of scale refer to the lower costs involved in producing larger quantities of a single type of good, economies of scope refer to the benefits generated from producing a mix of goods and thus are common in multiproduct firms’ (B. Warf 2007).


Economics
  • The benefits arising from engaging in related activities. These are similar to economies of scale, but whereas with economies of scale cost savings arise from carrying out more of the same activity, with economies of scope cost savings arise from engaging in related activities. Specialized labour, equipment, and ideas used in one activity are often also useful in related activities. Given the prevalence of multi-product firms, much of what is normally referred to as economies of scale is in fact economies of scope.
