Hello.
To 1: Every advertisment give points. You can have at least 40.000 points in one store. If you want to know, how much points you get per advertisement, then you can could the quality+1.
That means:
Q0 = 1 Advertise Point
Q1 = 2 Advertise Points
Q15 = 16 Advertise Points
etc.
To 2: Depending on the products you want to make, but yellow is a nice area.
To 3: The company contest is a NPC company. You can get more information about this company in the newspaper.
How to send contracts:
If you go into your WAREHOUSE, then you have to fill in the amount you want to send to the other company. Then you scroll down and write in the upper field on the right hand side the price, and on the field below the company name of the company which shall receive your contract.
If you filled in these 3 fields, click on the button "send".
To 4: Every building has a maximum seize of 32767m

I think you're pretty much on there Ainvos. A byte is 8 bits, or 8 zeros/ones. Without going into the details of binary numbers, that means 1 byte can hold 2^8 different numbers. Taking two together would give you 2^16.
But I suspect the database is built as a signed integer. Though you can't actually do it in the game, the system could hold a size of a building at a negative number down to -32768. So the total range is 2^16.
Thus they used two bytes to store the number.
If you're old enough to have played the old original Nintendo system (or other systems from that age) it was built as an 8-bit system. That meant most games would allow you to collect up to 255 coins (or whatever). It seemed like a weird number but 2^8 = 256, and including zero means 0-255.
Nowadays with purposeful design you can go as high as you want, but practically speaking there's no use dedicating storage to potential large numbers that will never actually happen.
