Andy’s Bicycle Company (ABC) has the hottest new product on the upscale toy market—boys’ and girls’ bikes in bright fashion colors, with oversize hubs and axles; shell design safety tires; strong padded frames; chrome-plated chains, brackets, and valves; and non-slip handlebars. Due to the seller’s market for high-quality toys for the newest baby boomers, ABC can sell all the bicycles it manufactures at the following prices: boys’ bikes, $220; girls’ bikes, $175.
