Answer:

a) Demonstrating bad timing.

Explanation:

If the firm releases a new technology with the hope of getting a lot of sales, only to have a competitor implement a similar, but more advanced or complete technology shortly after, it is because the firm is not aware enough of the timing of technological advancements.

A firm without bad timing should not have been surpassed in the technology department by a competitor so fast.

This kind of problem has hapenned in real life. for example, when Blackberry launched the 8000 - 9000 series of phones in 2006, only to have Apple launch the much more innovative and groundbreaking Iphone in 2007.

Through the money multiplier, loans will increase by $900*10= $9000. The expansion of the money supply is the original deposit + the increase in loans or $1,000+ $9,000= $10,000
