Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

More value might be created if a buyer agrees to limit his ability to deal with different producers or if a seller agrees not to deal with customers other than this particular buyer. The agreement can give the seller the benefits of steady operation, avoiding the costs of shutting down and restarting production unpredictably. The buyer can benefit because a contract that ensures deliveries at predictable prices allows him to make more competitive price and delivery commitments to his own customers.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
