Jаleesа wоrks in the schооl gym’s snаck shop. Profits from the snack shop go to support the school’s teams. Because of the snack shop’s success, other school clubs would like to sell items through the snack shop as well. Jaleesa talks to the managers of the snack shop about the possibility of other school clubs selling items through the shop. They decide that other clubs can sell items through the shop, but not food items; in addition, every club will have to pay the snack shop 20 percent of its profits. This seems to discourage more organizations from selling items through the snack shop. Later, as Jaleesa is sitting in her business class, the instructor explains trade restrictions placed on imports to limit particular foreign products from entering a country. As she thinks about the lesson, she realizes that if you compared the snack shop to a government, the snack shop has not acted to keep other items from being sold through the shop, but merely to raise revenue. Which of the following best describes the kind of trade restriction that Jaleesa is comparing the shop’s actions to?
