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.

max2010maxim [7]

A) deregulation  

B) socialism    

C) totalitarian ideologies

D) command economies

And this is the correct answer:

A) deregulation

The highest authority controls both prices and production (a staple of socialism and planned economies), and opposes most foreign investment, only allowing it after strict scrutiny and tight control.

In this nation, political leadership would oppose deregulation because this would reduce their power over the economy. Deregulation would likely mean easening price controls, allowing production to flow more freely, or lifting restrictions to foreign capital, things that Zorwaya's leaders oppose.
