A

Answer to Question 2

A cooperative strategy involves establishing partnerships or strategic alliances with other firms. Firms may combine resources, capabilities, and core competencies to gain market power, overcome trade barriers, learn from each other, pool resources for expensive and risky projects, compete more effectively in a particular industry, and speed up entry into new markets. Strategic alliances also allow a firm to create and disband projects with minimal paperwork.
