The Strategy, Tactics, and Economics of Pricing

Final Exam, Aug 2016 (Time Limit: 1 hour)

PART II

Name:     Haveen                                                                                              ID:1511396

This is an individual exam. Please type your name below the following statement to indicate that you honored the individual nature of this exam.
