Answer 1

Answer:

E- Business

Business to Business

Explanation:

As provided in the given instance the entire business is done online, all orders are processed online.

Further E- Business is the business that is solely or majorly done through internet, the orders are processed through internet and the customers get the product through internet.

Further, since ASI deals only with Amanda who takes the major goods from ASI and that is a old customer to ASI and uses the goods in her business.

Thus, she since does not consume the goods directly, like the chain of B2C. Also not like Business to Supplier as the supplier supplies goods further without any processing. But Amanda uses such goods as raw material for the goods she manufactures.

Thus, this is Business to Business.
