But announcing new technology too soon after the introduction of a successful device can backfire. Once consumers hear about the new device, they may stop buying the one currently on sale. So, if a company wishes to announce the upcoming sale of a new device, it should wait until purchases of the old device have begun to decline.<\/p>\n<p>Which of the following, if true, would best support the analyst's main assertion?<\/p>\n<p>(A) New technology often becomes less expensive after an initial surge in sales.<br \/>\n(B) Media outlets, such as television programs and magazines, often report on the planned introduction of new devices while the sales of old devices are still strong.<br \/>\n(C) Many consumers are unable to determine whether new technology is superior to current technology.<br \/>\n(D) Surveys have shown that some consumers make only one or two technology purchases per year, whereas others make more frequent purchases.<br \/>\n(E) Consumers tend to be loyal to technology companies whose products they enjoy using.<\/p>\n<div>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/forum\/cr-tech-toys-64914.html\">Question Discussion &amp; Explanation<\/a><br \/>\n<strong>Correct Answer<\/strong> <span style=\"background-color:#fff;color:#fff\">- B -<\/span> (click and drag your mouse to see the answer)\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><strong>Like these questions?<\/strong> Get the GMAT Club question collection: <a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/tests\/\">online at GMAT Club<\/a> OR <a href=\"https:\/\/click.linksynergy.com\/fs-bin\/stat?id=PJTlq5NYqfE&offerid=146261&type=3&subid=blog&tmpid=1826&RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fapp%252Fgmat-toolkit%252Fid328345537%253Fmt%253D8%2526uo%253D6%2526partnerId%253D30\">on your iPhone\/iPad<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/category\/blog\/gmat-tests\/\"><strong>Browse all GMAT Questions of the Day<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Subscribe to GMAT Question of the Day:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/feedburner.google.com\/fb\/a\/mailverify?uri=GMAT-Question-of-the-day&amp;loc=en_US\">E-mail<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/GMAT-Question-of-the-day\">RSS<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Math (PS) How many three-digit integers are not divisible by 3 ?
