Question

  when hunter went to the hardware looking for gloves to wear while refinishing a table, he bought one pair because that was all he needed, but when the hardware store purchased the gloves, it purchased a case containing 100 pairs of identical gloves. which logistical function did the hardware store perform for hunter?

marketing, buying , sorting, assorting, risk taking


skimming pricing is a strategy that introduces a new or innovative product by

setting the price 10 % below its nearest competitor

determining if the product is supply inelastic

creating a product image that appeals to fiscally-conservative consumers

setting a high initial price

setting a low initial price

Explanation / Answer

Answer1.

logistical functions include assorting—creating product assortments from several sources to serve customers, storing—assembling and protecting products at a convenient location to offer better customer service, sorting—purchasing in large quantities and breaking into smaller amounts desired by customers (in this case buying 100 pairs of identical gloves and offering 1 pair of gloves for Hunter), and transporting—physically moving a product to customers.

Therefore, the correct option is sorting.

Hence, the correct option is C.
