Question 2

Satellite Communications
 
  Jonathan worked for Satellite Communications for twenty years. In the time that he worked there, he learned a lot about the company and how it operated. The company met its sales and revenue goals every year. However, most of the employees had similar educational and cultural backgrounds. He believed that the company could do much better if it cultivated an environment that promoted many different ideas. Additionally, Satellite Communications was mostly focused on how much revenue it earned in a given year. Jonathan felt that the most important goal should be to satisfy customers. He believed financial success would result from focusing on customers.
 
  After a lot of consideration, Jonathan decided to open his own business called Universal Communications and hire employees that reflected a more diverse customer base. He was happy to have this opportunity because it was a dream that he had always had. He had always wanted to make his own decisions about what his company would produce and how. The only aspect of the business he was unsure of was pricing, yet he knew this would be important for his ultimate success.

 A) objective.
  B) market economy.
  C) business cycle.
  D) invisible hand.

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.
