Based on the scenario presented in the question, Merv will reduce his price to respond to the price competition from HomeShoppe. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the second option or option "B". I hope the answer has come to your help.
The correct answer is B. Merv will reduce his price to respond to the price competition from the HomeShoppe.
This is because, otherwise, it could not compete against the prices of a large retail hardware chain and its advertising methods.
Lowering the price, Merv could keep its stable base of clients, which would go to HomeShoppe if there was a difference of 6 dollars for the same product.
