Hii fluke. I have a little doubt regarding your explanation. Don't you think that XYZ agents denies the allegations by saying " That is ridiculous"?


The agent doesnt back up his response with any facts related to the allegation.

"Extremely rare" cannot be compared to "size of the company" or "authenticity of coins" or "delearship".

The investigator's charge (or accusation) is that "XYZ Coins has misled its clients by promoting some coins as 'extremely rare' when in fact those coins are relatively common and readily available."

XYZ responds by pointing out that...

  • "XYZ Coins is one of the largest coin dealers in the world."
  • "[XYZ] authenticates the coins [they] sell through a nationally recognized firm and operate a licensed coin dealership."

Notice that the investigator has accused XYZ of MISLEADING clients with false information. XYZ responds by listing two of XYZ's positive qualities (i.e. strengths). Having these two qualities might suggest that XYZ is a reputable company, but XYZ's response does not specifically address the investigator's accusation (that XYZ has misled clients with false information).

Choice (D) best describes XYZ's response: "(D) lists strengths of XYZ Coins while failing to address the investigator’s charge."

I hope that helps!
