Buyer's remorse is the feeling experienced when one decides to purchase an item, often of great value, only to later regret making that decision. This feeling can occur when the purchased item becomes undesirable or when the buyer realizes that the same item could have been purchased at a lower price. A consumer who purchased a new car last month has recently discovered that the same model is now being sold for $10,000 less than at the time of purchase. Despite a need for the car at the time, the consumer must be experiencing buyer's remorse.
Which of the following is an assumption upon which the argument depends?
A. The consumer no longer finds the car purchased last month to be desirable.
B. A need for an item cannot lessen any feelings of regret that may arise about the purchase.
C. The consumer did not expect the price of the car purchased last month to drop as soon as it did.
D. When the consumer purchased the car, several less expensive cars were available that would have met the consumer's needs just as well.
E. On other occasions, the consumer has regretted purchasing items that were later discovered on sale for less than the consumer paid.
Which of the following is an assumption upon which the argument depends?
A. The consumer no longer finds the car purchased last month to be desirable.
B. A need for an item cannot lessen any feelings of regret that may arise about the purchase.
C. The consumer did not expect the price of the car purchased last month to drop as soon as it did.

Which of the following is an assumption upon which the argument depends?
A. The consumer no longer finds the car purchased last month to be desirable.
-> even if he does find the car now to be desirable , the remorse can still be due to the less price . (Not an assumption)
B. A need for an item cannot lessen any feelings of regret that may arise about the purchase.
-> If a need for an item can lessen feelings of regret / remorse - oh boy then we can't really say that he MUST be feeling remorse.
This is the right assumption.
C. The consumer did not expect the price of the car purchased last month to drop as soon as it did.
-> Even if he did expect the price to drop as soon - he still is facing the remorse since according to the question the buyers remorse is caused after when one sees a price drop. Him expecting has nothing to do here according to the passage.
D. When the consumer purchased the car, several less expensive cars were available that would have met the consumer's needs just as well.
ok cool. Even if the purchased car was the most expensive among all the cars, remorse still happened (not an assumption)
E. On other occasions, the consumer has regretted purchasing items that were later discovered on sale for less than the consumer paid.
Nope not an assumption.
