Answer:

The correct answer is b. an arrangement whereby a firm reaches different buyers by employing two or more different types of channels for the same basic product.

Explanation:

Dual distribution is a situation where a manufacturer decides to distribute their products directly (using their own distributors) and, at the same time, hire independent distributors (who have no ownership relationship with the manufacturer).

Dual distribution derives its name from the fact that two means of distribution are used simultaneously: one of its own and one contracted. It is a mixture of the two basic distribution options that a manufacturer has: to integrate vertically and assume all distribution activities until reaching the final consumer or; outsource these activities and pay others to carry them out.

Cross Price Elasticity of Demand is a very useful tool in Economics to ascertain if goods are compliments or Substitutes.

Cross Price Elasticity of Demand (CPSD) measures the change in demand in one good due to a change in price is the other good.

If the CPSD is negative then the goods are Compliments meaning that they are used together which is why when the price of one good goes down, the demand of the compliment goes up because more of the original good will be bought due to the lower price.

If the CPSD is Positive, it means that they are Substitutes and a Decrease in price in one good leads to a decrease in demand for the other good because people will demand less of it and switch to the former (now cheaper) good.

The formula is,

= % change in Quantity Demanded of Product A /% change in Price of Product B

a. Splishy splashies and Flopsicles

CPSD = -18%/-1%

= 18%

The CPSD for both these products is 18% which is a positive figure. This means that they are Substitutes and should not be marketed together.

b. Splishy Splashies and Flopsicles

CPSD = 3%/-1%

= -3%

With the CPSD being a negative figure here, these goods are Compliments.

Splishy Splashies and Flopsicles should be Marketed together as they compliment each other.
