Short Case Scenario 1-1

Although imports are extremely limited because of difficult navigation to and from New Vermont, there are a handful of computer manufacturers in addition to Expert Electronics. While the government provides some services, such as public education and a well-maintained road system, almost all businesses are privately owned. Home ownership is unusually high, with 80 percent of all families owning their own home. Expert Electronics is selling a state-of-the-art desktop computer system for 1,299 veros (the local currency). At this price, Expert Electronics is able to fill all orders, but they have no waiting list.
