c. 0.25
Explanation:
Cross-price elasticity = [(Q2-Q1/)((Q1-Q2)/2) * 100] / [(P2-P1/)((P1-P2)/2) * 100]
Cross-price elasticity = [(65-55)/((65+55)/2)*100] / [(2-1)/((1+2)/2)*100]

Answer:
True, but it applies to everyone in the organization.
Explanation:
Modern companies can only be successful if every single employee works as a team member, since competition keeps increasing and customers' expectations keep rising.
Every single role within an organization is important. Can supply chain professionals distribute a product that doesn't exist (wasn't manufactured on time)? Could they distribute a product that no one wants to buy (marketing and sales are extremely important also)? Could anyone work if the finance department couldn't do its job and there was no money in the company?
We tend to believe that what we do is extremely important and difficult to do, and other people have it easier because their are simpler than ours. But that is just nonsense. Once I heard a quarterback talking about who was the most important player in a football team, and his answer really surprised me, "Quarterbacks fill stadiums, but defenses earn championships". On a team no one is more important, the chain breaks on its weakest link.
