Question 203 - DA0-001 discussion

Answer C) While Strategy 2 does not result in the highest sales of Product D. over

Explanation:

all products it appears to be the most effective.

A summary statement that upholds integrity in data reporting should be accurate, unbiased, and supported by evidence. Option C is the only statement that meets these criteria, as it reflects the data shown in the bar graph without exaggerating or distorting it. Option C also acknowledges the limitation of the statement by using the word "appears", which indicates that there may be other factors or variables that affect the sales performance.

Option A is inaccurate, as sales are not approximately equal for Product A and Product B across all strategies. Product A has higher sales than Product B in strategies 1, 3, and 5, while Product B has higher sales than Product A in strategies 2 and 4.

Option B is biased, as it does not consider the sales of different products in each strategy. Strategy 4 provides the best sales for Product B, but not for the other products. Strategy 5 has the highest total sales across all products, as shown by the black line graph.

Option D is unsupported by evidence, as it does not explain why Product D should be promoted more than the other products in all strategies. Product D has the lowest sales among all products in strategies 1, 3, and 4, and only slightly higher sales than Product C in strategies 2 and 5.
