B

Answer to Question 2

Answer to Question 3

A target point relates to an ideal situation, but a reservation point relates to what represents as one's BATNA. Using
one's target point as a reservation point can result in the following fatal flaws: agreeing to a settlement that is worse
than what the negotiator could do or walking away from a potentially profitable deal.
