To start off this final discussion, I want to look at a definition from investopedia on the economies of scale: Economies of scale are cost advantages reaped by companies when production becomes efficient (Kenton, 2024). The big thing to take away from this is with bigger companies will have greater savings, whereas the smaller business have smaller savings, and this is all in regards to a few factors. These include, production costs, unit of issue costs, and customers in general, and finally, I would even say that location plays a part in this too. 
Within the economies of scale, there are two variations: 
Internal economies of scale: Originate within the company, due to changes in how that company functions or produces goods (Kenton, 2024).
External economies of scale: Based on factors that affect the entire industry, rather than a single company (Kenton, 2024).
These two help create advantages and disadvantages to the transportation industry. Some advantages would be lower costs as mentioned before, improved customer service and better reliability, and global reach. On the disadvantage side, Environmental hazards due to more transportation happening, bigger corporations dominating over the smaller businesses, and with a bigger exposure now to the supply chain and movement in transportation, a lot can go wrong if not planned correctly.

Greetings, Class and Dr. R.,
According to a Corporate Finance Institute article, “Economies of scale refer to the cost advantage experienced by a firm when it increases its level of output.” (Loo, 2023) In this case, the transportation and logistics industry can acquire cost advantages as companies increase their scale of operation. Expanded operational footprints and increased traffic volumes of raw materials and finished goods enable a structured, systematic spread of fixed costs over more units, considerably reducing average costs. meaning “the greater the quantity of output produced, the lower the per-unit fixed cost.” (Loo, 2023) Cost and expense reductions mitigate transportation and logistical costs, thereby permitting a company to invest in futures and infrastructure while remaining relevant as a market influencer.
The advantages gained from economies of scale in the transportation and logistics industry of increased operational efficiency and reduced average costs allow a company to offer pricing models that intrigue consumers. How does this relate to the transportation industry? A more robust company that capitalizes on economies of scale leverages size to negotiate preferential rates and relationships with suppliers, which leads to improved interoperability and creates a preference base for transportation providers due to their high volume of business. Scaling also underscores the ability of companies to make technological and continuous process improvement investments to exploit operational superiority.
However, it’s crucial to be aware of the potential risks. Over-expansion, for instance, can lead to underused capacity and increased average costs. The enormity of larger operations may also pose challenges in terms of flexibility and responsiveness to market changes. Also, the initial investment required to capitalize on economies of scale can be significant, potentially creating a contentious hurdle for some companies to overcome. It’s essential to remain deliberately careful and consider these factors when considering the benefits of economies of scale.
Have a great week!

Overview
In the Chase et al (2002) reading this week, Table 2 described six different approaches to engagement of interested parties were discussed, ranging along a continuum of interested party involvement and influence from the ‘Authoritative’ to ‘Co-management’.  These approaches form the continuum within which wildlife managers decide which approaches are suitable for engaging with interested parties in wildlife decision-making. These authors, as well as your other required readings, provide case studies detailing the process of determining the most appropriate form of engagement. In addition, the Lute and Gore (2014) paper looks at a variety of themes that emerge out of the implementation of this continuum (portrayed as top-down and bottom-up in their discussion). 
Questions
Based on your understanding of these readings, discuss the approaches of engagement available to a wildlife manager, and
Describe the process you might follow for engaging interested parties in wildlife management decision-making. 
Be sure to address the pros and cons associated with the approaches you describe.

Discussion 4: Monetizing APPs
Making money from apps is possible but difficult. There are hundreds of thousands of apps available. The revenue generated from an individual app is typically very small, and the app stores take a 30% cut of all the revenue that your app generates. How do you get people to pay you to use yours? What are the different ways you can collect money for the use of your apps? More importantly, how can you get a lot of people to pay you to use the app so that the revenue generates enough to fund further development or expansion? These are some of the questions that many developers ask. Some questions have concrete answers; others are still very much open for debate.
How do you get a piece of that pie?
You’ve created and tested a great app. Now you want your efforts to pay off. What is the best way to do this?
What options do you have to make money from apps?
What do you have to do to start?
