If the manager has 8 dozen bagels left at 6:30 p.m. on a particular day, which of the following alternatives is most attractive? O a. Throw the bagels away and produce 8 fewer dozen bagels tomorrow. O b. Starting tomorrow, lower the price on all bagels so they will all be sold earlier in the day. Lower the price of the remaining bagels, even if the price falls below $1.00 per dozen. O d. Lower the price of the remaining bagels, but under no circumstances should the price fall below $1.00 per dozen.
