Answer:

1. Liberalization of foreign trade and foreign investment policies

2. Information technology

Explanation:

1. Liberalization of foreign trade and foreign investment policies. Trade liberalization means removing constraint or impediments to free flow of trade among countries in the world. It enables import and export to take place hence led to interconnectedness of countries.

Also, foreign companies are allowed and able to locate their business outlet in their host country. Due to foreign investment policies, there is fusion of market and production thus leading to interconnectedness of countries.

2. Information technology. Constant improvement in information technology has led to interconnectedness of countries. For instance, the use of internet(social media) comes at a lower cost hence messages can be sent from a remote area and goes viral around the world immediately it is sent.

Also telecommunication gadgets such as mobile phones, telegraphs, fax connects people and business across several race and continents.

Answer: heavy promotion and low (exclusive) availability

Explanation:

The wrong combination is high promotion and low availability, because when a product is highly promoted it would lead to high interest in that product from the consumers, this would lead to a high demand for that product from customers. And this high demand needs to be met with high supply, which is not the case here, therefore scarcity would set in.

andre [41]

Answer: 1. No.

2. Yes.

Explanation:

Price Discrimination is a pricing strategy where suppliers/producers or sellers sell a good to different people at different prices depending largely on their preference and/or capacity to pay for the commodity i.e, if you want it more, you are charged more.

1. Johnny did not like to play Hopscotch, so offering Suzie one day of Hopscotch for two days of bug hunting is fair and no price discrimination occured as he did not offer these terms to someone else who's game he did not like.

2. Sam knew that Johnny really liked playing Slaps so he leveraged on that and offered him more expensive terms so to speak than he did to Bill even though he liked playing the both games equally. This means that he charged Johnny more than Bill simply because Johnny liked and preferred his game alot which is Price discrimination.
