D: the manufacturer not acquiring with the supplier but only purchase a paper mill not to be replace the supplier but to expand the fabrication process, so D is the right answer If the manufacturer's acquisition of the paper mill is primarily aimed at expanding its operations and increasing control over the fabrication process, then option D, "expansion in the scale of operations," would indeed be the most appropriate answer. Therefore, if the primary motivation behind acquiring the paper mill is to expand the fabrication process and enhance the manufacturer's operations, option D would be the correct choice.
