Freak Cola

Expert replies
by lilisanei » Wed Oct 13, 2010 1:17 pm
According to a survey of consumers conducted one week before the end of a national call-in campaign to decide the newest flavor of Freak Cola, more of those surveyed responded that they enjoyed the Citrusea Swirl flavor than responded that they enjoyed any other flavor choice. Regardless of the survey results, a different flavor, Vanilla Bonanza, was the national favorite by a considerable percentage.

Each of the following, if true, contributes to a resolution of the discrepancy described above EXCEPT:
A) Freak Cola made an announcement four days before the end of the call-in campaign stating that the third option, VeriBlueBeri, was being removed from consideration as the new flavor choice.
B) The survey was conducted only on the east coast, and the percentage of people thought to like Vanilla Bonanza on the east coast is much smaller than the percentage who liked Citrusea Swirl.
C) More than 60% of those responding to the survey in favor of Vanilla Bonanza stated they were likely to call in and vote, whereas only 25% of those supporting Citrusea Swirl claimed they would be calling in their votes.
D) A smaller percentage of those favoring the Vanilla Bonanza flavor knew the call-in number than did those favoring Citrusea Swirl.
E) The entire survey was developed and conducted by members of the Freak Cola design team that created Citrusea Swirl.

I do not understand this too :cry

I choose [spoiler]D)[/spoiler]

Explanation

[spoiler]
P1. The survey favored Citrus.
P2. The call-in favored Vanilla.

A) WORKS After the survey, but before the call-in ended, they removed an option. The people that chose the third option in the survey could then have moved to the second option in the call-in and change the result.
B) WORKS The survey was done in a place where people like Citrus a lot more.
C) WORKS People who liked Citrus said that they weren't likely to call.
D) DOESN'T WORK More Citrus people knew the number. This works in the opposite direction.
E) WORKS The survey was created by Citrus people, they could've skewed the results.

contributes to a resolution of the discrepancy described above EXCEPT
IN OTHER WORDS "Discrepancy cannot be judged because of which reason ?"

D) A smaller percentage of those favoring the Vanilla Bonanza flavor knew the call-in number than did those favoring Citrusea Swirl.

Even though more people favoring Citrusea Swirl knew about the call-in, Vanilla Bonanza still won.
