WORMS executives took an uncharitable view off this "tLirncoat" activity by it former employees. They summoned you to a meeting with executives of WOMS, announced that they would like to push BRI out of the industry and asked just exactly how far they could go in buying up worn out drill bit carcasses (known in the industry as duds). In particular they asked: a) is it permissible to buy duds for the purposes of doing additional failure analysis so as to improve production techniques, and if so hm many? b) Is it all right to buy additional duds, and if so how many, for the purposes 0: salvaging parts that the duds contain for reuse in its own production processes. c) Is it permissible to buy up duds for the purposes of salvaging valuable scrap metals that th exhausted duds contain? d) Is it permissible to buy up duds and \"toss them out in the back lot" simply for the purpose of driving up the price of duds to the rebuilders? e) Can you think of any other course of action that WORMS could take through which i1 could properly prevent BRI from capturing so large a market share of "drill bit services"
