Using the non-strategic view of bargaining, explain how each of the five forces affects the bargaining outcomes between the firm in a particular industry and its customers and suppliers.

Pick a particular industry (perhaps the one you’re in) and explain how you could try to use some of the techniques to obtain more favorable terms. What is the likelihood of success of your strategies? Are there any costs from trying your strategies (unintended consequences)?
