Over the past five years, the price gap between name-brand cereals and less expensive store-brand cereals has become so wide that consumers have been switching increasingly to store brands despite the name brands' reputation for better quality. To attract these consumers back, several manufacturers of name-brand cereals plan to narrow the price gap between their cereals and store brands to less than what it was five years ago.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously calls into question the likelihood that the manufacturers' plan will succeed in attracting back a large percentage of consumers who have switched to store brands?
There is no significant difference among manufacturers of name-brand cereals in the prices they charge for their products.
Consumers who have switched to store-brand cereals have generally been satisfied with the quality of those cereals.
Many consumers would never think of switching to store-brand cereals because they believe the name brand cereals to be of better quality.
Because of lower advertising costs, stores are able to offer their own brands of cereals at significantly lower prices than those charged for name-brand cereals
Total annual sales of cereals-including both name-brand and store-brand cereals-have not increased significantly over the past five years.
呃,同选B但是想法不一样,我的思路是:问题问就算降价了大品牌可能也没法挽回大量已经switch brand的顾客---B switch brand的顾客对质量都很满意,那么价格就不是他们再考虑的范围,就算降价也没法挽回客源----削弱了他们降价挽回客源的可能性
