Answer 2

Answer:

Option a - The customer has to pay a high price.

Explanation:

• Outsourcing is the practice of delegating a company's services or creating goods to an external agency or a third party.
• It is a practice undertaken by the companies as a cost-cutting measure.
• Economies of scale: This means saving in costs gained by increased production and lower wage costs.  
• Benefits of outsourcing are low-cost labour and service innovation.
• The quality might be affected.
• There are hidden costs, which are paid by the customers.
