Abel Corp is engaged in maximizing profits.

Explanation:

By different reasons (trade barriers, exchange rate fluctuations, a shift in preferences in Britain increasing demand of Global Electric goods type), there is a market opportunity to increase profits per unit sold faster in Britain than France. IF Abel Corp is not bound by a commercial agreement with Global Electric to sell its products only in France, Global Electric cannot make a complaint about selling its products in another market.
