A small wine and cheese store in Milwaukee sells dozens of different type of cheese: Bulgarian, French, Danish, Greek, and a domestic from its home state of Wisconsin. The domestic Wisconsin cheese sells for $1.99/pound, while all the others sell for more than $2.99/pound, and the Greek variety is priced at $6.99/pound. The domestic variety is much cheaper because

B. the value of the dollar never favors imported goods.
C. the distributors of these imports refuse to buy the cheese in large enough quantities to enjoy economies of scale.
