I thought price fixing was more about setting prices, not dividing markets.

I think Situation A is definitely about market division, but I'm torn between tying arrangement and price fixing for Situation B.

I thought a group boycott was more about refusing to deal with someone, not just dividing markets. I'm a bit confused about that part.

I practiced a similar question where tying arrangements were involved, so I feel like that might be the right answer for Situation B.

Okay, I think I've got this. Situation A is a horizontal division of markets, and Situation B is either a tying arrangement or price fixing. I'll weigh the options and select the best answer.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about the differences between horizontal division of markets and horizontal group boycott. I'll need to double-check my understanding of those concepts.

This looks like a straightforward antitrust question. I'll carefully review the details of each situation and match them to the potential violations.

The tying arrangement and price fixing options both seem plausible for Situation B. I'll need to think through the specifics of each to determine which one is the better match.

I think Option B is the way to go here. Manually assigning the products to the correct ancestor categories may take more work upfront, but it seems like the most straightforward and reliable solution in the long run.

Hmm, this question is tricky. I'm leaning towards C, but I'm not 100% confident. Maybe I should ask the instructor for a hint - you know, just to 'fix' this problem, haha.

I think the answer is B. Situation A is a horizontal division of markets, and Situation B is price fixing. That's a classic antitrust violation combination.

Situation A definitely sounds like a horizontal division of markets, but I'm not sure about Situation B. I'll have to think that one through a bit more.

Situation B might be a tying arrangement, where they force customers to buy one product in order to get another.
