Question

Which of the following is NOT an example of a consumer problem regarding inadequate or erroneous information given by the manufacturer?

• A. Labels not factually correct, deceptive and misleading
• B. Incorrect weights and measures
• C. Non-informative advertisements
• D. Lack of buying guides to aid the consumer in decision-making

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The question asks for an option that is NOT an example of a consumer problem regarding inadequate or erroneous information provided by the manufacturer. Let's review the options:

• Labels not factually correct, deceptive, and misleading: This is an example of inadequate or erroneous information given by the manufacturer, leading to a consumer problem.
• Incorrect weights and measures: This is another example of erroneous information that can create consumer issues regarding product accuracy.
• Non-informative advertisements: If advertisements are non-informative, they mislead consumers or fail to provide adequate product information, creating a problem.
• Lack of buying guides to aid the consumer in decision-making: This does not directly involve erroneous or inadequate information given by the manufacturer. While helpful, buying guides are not essential for the product's accuracy or correctness.

Thus, Option D is not an example of erroneous or inadequate information from the manufacturer.

Answer 2

The lack of buying guides is not directly related to misinformation by the manufacturer; it represents an absence of helpful resources for consumers. The other options involve misleading or incorrect information provided by the manufacturer, which can impact the consumer’s understanding and decision-making.
