Refer to the scenario below to answer the following question(s) .
Reliable Tools Company is a manufacturer of hubs and axles for the trailer and heavy truck industry. Although Reliable Tools only has 15 customers, the company is the sole supplier of hub and axle components to those customers. Monthly sales at Reliable Tools are approximately $1 million.
