  A) No, even if the price discrimination is based on differences in cost, the law states that it is not illegal.
  B) No, because it can be argued that the discount store chain is justified in charging lower prices because it is a large-volume buyer and is able to purchase toys at a lower wholesale price than Clarissa.
  C) Yes, it is clearly a violation of the Robinson-Patman Act.
  D) Yes, the discount store chain is engaging in predatory pricing.
