E. None of the options are correct

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": a conditional pricing schedule.

Explanation:

A conditional pricing schedule is a pricing strategy in which what is charged to the customer depends on variable factors such as the size of the purchase or the type of products acquired. In banking, financial institutions tend to use this strategy usually according to the balance account holders have. The higher the balance the higher interest rates they pay to customers or the smaller fees they charge to promote clients have more money in the bank so the financial institutions can use those funds to invest.
