Firms that operate internationally are able to :
All the above
Charles Hill's treatment of international strategy explains that expanding abroad lets a firm increase profitability and profit growth in several ways that a purely domestic firm cannot.
First, the firm can earn a greater return from its distinctive skills and core competencies by applying them in new foreign markets where local rivals lack them. Second, it can realise location economies by performing each value-creation activity in the country where it can be done most efficiently, given factor costs, skills and infrastructure. Third, by serving a global market from a few sites it reaches large cumulative volumes quickly, moving down the experience curve so that unit production costs fall through learning effects and scale economies.
Each of the three listed benefits is a recognised advantage of operating internationally, so choosing any one of them alone would leave out the other two valid gains.
All the above option is correct.
