Imagine you own a food truck that sells gourmet vegan tacos. You rely on many suppliers, all of which also supply their goods to your competitors (other food trucks in the area). For some items, like paper plates and napkins, you have several suppliers. For other items, like extra-firm tofu, you rely on a single supplier. What is an industry analysis most likely to suggest?
a) The power of suppliers is relatively high for some items and relatively low for others. You should find other suppliers of extra-firm tofu so that you have a more diverse supply
b) The power of suppliers is high overall, because you have so many of them You need to consolidate to fewer suppliers, so you have more bargaining power
c) The power of suppliers is relatively low since you work with so many of them. However, you should have your tofu supplier also supply your paper plates and napkins so that you have a more diverse supply of these paper products
d) None of the above Ос.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Because there are plenty of suppliers for some goods, the food truck owner is more powerful in this case than the suppliers. Here the power of suppliers is low

For the other goods with only a single supplier. the supplier has more powerful than the taco seller. here the power of supplier is high. If the supplier increases price, the taco seller would most likely have an inelastic demand and would be at the mercy of the supplier

thus, the  power of suppliers is relatively high for some items and relatively low for others.
