RoundTire Bicycle manufactures bicycles. It buys parts from foreign companies, pays for them overseas, and ships them to Houston where U.S. duties are paid. The parts are then shipped to a plant in Texas for assembly and sale. The company is considering alternatives to reduce costs. Which of the following is most likely to be successful:
 a. locate the plant in a foreign-trade zone in Texas and have the parts shipped there, with duties assessed on the assembled bicycles when they leave the foreign-trade zone
  b. appeal to the Department of Commerce under the Export Administration Act
  c. apply to the FTC to be designated an international company under the Export Trading Company Act
  d. seek an import restrictions exemption from the U.S. Customs Service as a company aggrieved by foreign competition
  e. none of these would likely be a successful strategy
