    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Both A & B
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Both A & B". This means that guarantees for the consumer involve understanding the terms of the guarantee and ensuring that the manufacturer is capable of fulfilling it. This implies that consumers should be aware of the specific conditions and limitations of a guarantee, as well as the reputation and reliability of the manufacturer offering it. By considering both aspects, consumers can make informed decisions and have confidence in their purchases.

    Mr. Brown's family is shopping for a big-screen TV. The TV they chose has a retail price of $1,000 at four stores. The state sales tax applicable on the item is 5%. Each store is offering a different sales promotion, as listed below. Which store is offering the best deal?

    • $50 rebate

    • The store pays the sales tax

    • $40 rebate with the store paying half of the sales tax

    • 10% discount on the price

    Correct Answer
    A. 10% discount on the price
    Explanation
    The store offering the best deal is the one that offers a 10% discount on the price. This is because a 10% discount on the $1,000 price would result in a savings of $100. The other options, such as a $50 rebate or a $40 rebate with the store paying half of the sales tax, do not offer as much savings. The option of the store paying the sales tax would only save the amount of the sales tax, which is 5% of $1,000, or $50. Therefore, the 10% discount on the price is the best deal.

    John's family is shopping for a sofa. The sofa that the family chose has a retail price of $800 plus 5% sales tax at four stores. Also, each store offers a different promotional offer. Which store has the best deal?

    • Store A: $60 instant rebate

    • Store B: 15% off sale

    • Store C: 5% off sale plus store pays sales tax

    • Store D: a "no tax" sale—the store pays the tax

    Correct Answer
    A. Store B: 15% off sale
    Explanation
    Store B offers a 15% off sale, which means that the family will receive a discount of 15% on the retail price of the sofa. This discount will be applied before the sales tax is calculated. In comparison, Store A offers a $60 instant rebate, Store C offers a 5% off sale plus store pays sales tax, and Store D offers a "no tax" sale where the store pays the tax. The 15% off sale at Store B is the best deal because it provides a higher discount compared to the other stores' offers.
