Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The first part of the statement is not only false but also counterproductive. If the firm tries to sell things to people who cannot afford them, it will probably not make a lot of profit, by definition.

The second part is simply unethical. For example, a cigarette company should not sell cigarettes to teenagers, it is unethical and also illegal.
