Answer:

B. The denial is justifiable given the level of interbrand competition.

Explanation:

Anti trust law only applicable if you can proof that two or more producers in the same industry work together in order to assert their control over the market. They can do this through price fixing, controlling the amount of supply, etc.

This condition<em> can't be found</em> in the scenario above.

The denial that done by PepsiCo is justifiable because in a really competitive market, a company need to impose a strict requirement on which entities they should form a dealership relation with. If PepsiCo choose the wrong dealers, Its competitors could easily taken over the market and resulted in a huge amount of loss for the company.

NeTakaya

Answer:

D. harms the society by interfering with the economy's natural process.

Explanation:

In order to get out of recession, the fed should reduce the tax rates, which would in return lead to higher disposable income of the consumers, and then there will be an increase in the demand.

On the other hand the sale of bonds would even further increase the recession, as there will be more cash crunch in the economy. A decrease in reserve ratio will be a long time taking solution, so it would not provide an immediate solution.

MCQ

But, if the fed interferes with the short run equilibrium in the hope of giving short run benefits, it will hamper the economy's natural process to attain a new equilibrium as discussed in the paragraph above. Hence, option D is the correct answer

Option A and C are incorrect, because, employment is not much affected with lowering of income tax. On, the other hand, inflation levels rise, when there is a cut in income tax, as it gives more currency in the economy, hence even C is incorrect.
