Conclusion: Zsa Zsa has decided to open salon for young people.
Zsa Zsas plan of action is based on all of the following assumptions EXCEPT -
A. enough young people live in the neighborhood to establish a large enough client base - yes, this can be assumption. Try to negate, if not enough young people live in the neighborhood, zsa zsa won't have a large client base and her salon won't be able to survive.
B. Zsa Zsa can provide the styles and services that will appeal to younger customers. - yes, this can be the assumption. If zsa zsa provide services that attract young customers, the young customers will go to zsa zsa instead of other 2 salons in the neighborhood.
C. younger clients in Zsa Zsa’s neighborhood will be able to afford her services. - yes, this can be the assumption. If younger clients can't afford the services, they might go to the general barbershop that might have cheaper price instead.
D. Zsa Zsa will establish friendly relationships with the owners of the other salons. - out of scope. The relationship with the owners of the other stores does not have anything to do with the focus on youngsters for Zsa Zsa shop.
E. young clients desire services and styles that are not available at the other salons. - yes, this can be the assumption. If zsa zsa provide unique services that does not provide in general barbershop and the old women shop, it will attract more customers to zsa zsa.
Therefore D is the correct answer.
