Complete the following table by matching each of the scenarios to the concept of resale price maintenance, predatory pricing, or bundling. Resale Price Maintenance Predatory Pricing Scenario Citron is a firm that manufactures electric scooters. Suppose Citron sells its electric scooters to online retailers for $830 each and requires those online retailers to charge at least $840 to shoppers for each electric scooter. Hynes sells a wide variety of condiments to retail grocery stores. Hynes recently developed two new condiments: a popular barbacuffalo and much less popular green ketchup. Hynes requires grocery stores to order 10 bottles of the green ketchup for every 100 bottles of the barbacuffalo bought. Warm Winds is the only firm producing air fryers. It costs $430 to produce one air fryer, and Warm Winds sells each air fryer for $850. After Sirocco, a new firm with the same costs as Warm Winds, enters the market for air fryers, Warm Winds starts selling its air fryers for a price of $310. O True O True or False: By bundling the two condiments together, Hynes can force grocery stores to pay more than they would be willing to pay when purchasing the condiments separately. O False Bundling O O
