Answer: For this statement.

Explanation:

People will generally offer their loyalties to those who pay them the highest or who pay them at all and companies will typically be loyal to their country of origin.

What this means is that trade negotiators who work for lobbyists of foreign firms will typically want to advance the interests of the foreign firms when negotiating trade deals for the U.S. government.

This presents a problem because the foreign companies might want to negotiate a deal that favors their own countries over the United States so if trade negotiators that are on their side are the ones negotiating for the United States, the U.S. might not get a good enough deal.

Imagine for instance, a person negotiating a trade deal for the U.S. with China but the person works for lobbyists of Huawei. It is reasonable to assume that the person would want to advance the interests of China on behalf of Huawei. Restricting such a person from negotiating for the U.S. reduces such a possibility.

Which of the following is LEAST likely to be a reason for firms to form a cartel?
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": to raise competition among firms in the cartel.

Explanation:

A cartel is a group of companies or countries working together to regulate the price of a single product they produce in common. The cartel makes it impossible for a foreign business to enter the market and demand lower prices. Cartels are, in most cases, not helpful to customers. They generate high prices that remain unchanged until consumers find alternative ways to purchase the same items.

Under such a scenario,<em> cartels are unlikely to be formed to generate more competition among the companies that compose them.</em>
