B) Dow Chemical does not directly use natural gas, but does use electricity that can be generated by natural gas, so the effect on Dow Chemical will depends on alternative means of producing electricity.
C) The transportation costs of exporting natural gas from the U.S.to Asia and Europe will keep the price of natural gas in the U.S.relatively low, so Dow Chemical will benefit from that low price.
