Answer: A. based on optimal plant size determination based on cost minimization
Explanation:
The information given isn't complete as there are some diagrams attached which I saw online.
Based on the information gotten, the decision on the price to charge and the quantity to produce in the long run will be based on optimal plant size determination based on cost minimization.
It should be noted that the quantity of goods produced in the long run, and the price that'll be charged will depends on optimal size of the plant. In the long, there can be an alteration of the plant size and therefore, the output and price will be determined by the optimal plant size.
Answer: A. New buy
Explanation:
The situation described is most likely a NEW BUY situation because it bares some characteristics of same. In a new buy, customers generally take their time to make a decision and put the seller through a lot of paperwork in the case of corporate entities in a bid to assess the risk or cost of the new product. It is also necessary to do so as they have no previous experience with the seller and so trust cannot play a center stage.
Jenny also implied that it was the first time she had met them and it was also the first time they had been introduced to the product so there is that.
