Answer to Question 1

Price fixing among competitors always is a violation of antitrust law, whether or not the act was found to be harmful to consumers. If the Justice Department can prove the existence of price fixing, a defendant can offer no acceptable excuse. Price fixing between a supplier and a reseller is not illegal as long as it is not anticompetitive.

Answer to Question 2

B
