Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
(A) Convenience Products — this matches (IV) Which are purchased frequently. These are everyday goods such as soap and toothpaste. People buy them often, in small amounts and with little effort, so they must be available in many shops close by.
(B) Shopping Products — this matches (III) On which buyers devote considerable time. Before buying clothes, shoes or furniture, the buyer compares quality, price and style at several shops. That comparison takes time.
(C) Speciality Products — this matches (II) People make special efforts in their purchase. Their special features make buyers go out of their way to get them, for example a costly watch or camera. Few people buy them, and they may be sold in only a few shops.
(D) Durable Products — this matches (I) Which normally survive many uses. This is the basis of durability, not of shopping effort. Goods such as a refrigerator or a bicycle are used again and again over a long period.
