Selected Answer: A
Martha's statement to the manufacturing equipment company, indicating that they could receive a lower interest rate on the loan if they move some of their demand accounts to the bank, potentially violates anti-tying provisions. Tying is the practice of requiring a customer to purchase one product or service as a condition of purchasing another. It can violate antitrust laws, such as the Sherman Antitrust Act, by restricting competition.
