Solution
The bargaining zone in a negotiation is the range or area in which an agreement is satisfactory to both parties involved. This zone is identified by determining the overlap between the seller's minimum price (resistance point) and the buyer's maximum price (target point).
In this case, Alex's resistance point is 300. This means Alex won't sell for less than 300.
Peter's resistance point is 120. This means Peter won't buy for more than 120.
The bargaining zone is the overlap between Alex's selling range (300) and Peter's buying range (180).
So, the bargaining zone in this case is from 180.
