What type of stores rely on their large size and very deep selection to try to dominate the market?
andrew-mc [135]
Power retailers are the stores that rely on their large size and very deep selection to try to dominate the market. 
Specialty stores are small, so you can eliminate that option immediately. Department stores are usually found within another store, so that's not correct too. Discounters don't have a very deep selection, they usually sell a lot of various things. Anchor stores are found within malls, so that's incorrect too.

105 - 2 = 103

Yet it was sold for 105. The gain is therefore
