Answer:
The correct answer is (A) Penetration pricing.
Explanation:
In this type of pricing, a product is initially priced low to quickly reach a large part of the market and to encourage the word of mouth marketing from consumers. This strategy works with the expectation that customers will be attracted to the new brand due to the low price. But in the case of batteries, the customer compares quality with a high price (Auger et al., 2010). So, this will not be considered as a successful pricing approach from Energizer.

Answer:
The 1-day rate of return on the index = 5.36%
Explanation:
Index Value = Sum of (Outstanding Shares*Share Price)
q p mv q1 p1 mv1
640,000 16 10240000 640000 20 12800000
540,000 24 12960000 540000 22 11880000
240,000 55 <u>13200000</u> 240000 57 <u>13680000</u>
<u>36400000 </u> <u>38360000</u>
Note: q/q1 = no of shares, p = price per share, mv/mv1 = market value, p1 = changed price per share
Return = (Index Value Today - Index Value Yesterday)/Index Value Yesterday
Return = (38360000 - 36400000) / 36400000
Return = 0.05385
Return = 5.36%
