Your best customer, who has high volume with your company, asks you for a volume discount. Actually, he demands this, rather than just asking. Under what circumstances, if any, can you grant this request without violating antitrust laws

Answer:

The company can accept its customers request and it should allow all its customers to avail same discount to avoid antitrust laws violation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The customers with high volume can ask for discount from the company as their bargaining power is high. The company can consider the request of its customers and grant them discount unless the company gains no profit from trade. If the transaction is profitable for the company, it will allow its customers to stay with the company and will accept their requests.
