Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Price fixing among competitors is always a violation of the antitrust law. This type of price fixing, in and of itself, is a violation of the law. If the government can prove the existence of price fixing, the accused firms are guilty because there are no mitigating circumstances allowed. Price fixing in the form of resale price maintenance is legal as long as it is not anticompetitive.
