Answer 2

The correct answer is the option F: a, b and c only.

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin with, in most of the cases where a company receives commodities from other business and also gives finished products to other companies normally tend to focus more in his own stock price just like the other members of the supply chain do. In addition to that, these types of companies also focuses in the short run and in the day to day business due to the fact that do not encourage the fact of creating an alliance with the other members of the chain. And finally, all those factors take part of a whole that also includes the fact of not having time to learn how to implement collavorative business models to improve the perfomance of the business at the long run due to the fact that the managers are to busy working in the day to day operations and focuses on the short run and their own stock prices and not on working with the other managers' companies of the supply chain to establish an alliance that will help all of the members to improve everyone's performance and product.
