Hana Dickerson · Answer 1

Reduce fixed costs and increase variable costs.

Explanation:

Outsourcing allows firms to spend less on fixed costs like equipment, fixed salaries of employees, and other resources like technology and insurance. Some of the firm's fixed costs will be converted to variable costs, but these can be controlled more easily by changing production and other factors.
