Purushottam Bhatnagar owns and operates a sweetshop Puru and Sons. He is about 60 years old and is eager to hand over the business to his sons Ratan and Pramod. He however, fears that his sons, fresh from college may not understand the tricks of the trade.
Purushottam's eldest son discovered that the shop repackaged sweets that were close to expiry and sold them at a discount under different names. These sweets usually get sold very fast. But his son was concerned about the possible consequences of this practice. Purushottam was thinking of the following arguments to convince his son. 1. These sweets are consumed the same day and therefore there is no cause for worry. 2. Reduced prices give enough indication about the sweets to the customers. 3. These products are preferred by those who cannot afford full price and in a way, this is a service done to them. 4. In the past 30 years not a single person has reported ill because of consumption of these sweets. 5. Repacking and selling sweets is a common practice. Which combination of arguments below is MOST LIKELY to convince Ratan?
