Suppose that there are six firms that produce good A
Their revenue are:
Firm 1: $15,000
Firm 2: $20,000
Firm 3: $15,000
Firm 4: $12,500
Firm 5: $37,500
Firm 6: $15,000
Calculate the 4 firm concentration ratio (enter as a decimal
4 firm concentration ratio is the ratio of the total sales of 4 largest firms in the industry to the total sales of the industry.
Total sales = 15000 + 20000 + 15000 + 12500 + 37500 + 15000 = 115000
Sales of 4 largest firm = 37500 + 20000 + 15000 + 15000 = 87500
Calculate the Four-firm concentration ratio -
Four-firm concentration ratio = Sales of 4 largest firms/Total sales of industry = 87,500/115,000 = 0.76
Thus,
The four-firm concentration ratio is 0.76
