    Reach and Frequency are inversely related.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Reach and Frequency are inversely related means that as the reach of a message increases, the frequency of that message decreases, and vice versa. This is because reach refers to the number of unique individuals who are exposed to a message, while frequency refers to the number of times those individuals are exposed to the message. When the reach is high, the message is reaching a larger audience, so there is less need to repeat it multiple times. On the other hand, when the reach is low, the message needs to be repeated more frequently to ensure it reaches a sufficient number of individuals. Therefore, the statement is true.

    What information can be inferred from competitive expenditure data?

    • Target audience

    • Size of budget

    • Weight by market

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. All of the above
    Explanation
    Competitive expenditure data provides information about the target audience, size of budget, and weight by market. By analyzing this data, companies can understand who their competitors are targeting, how much they are spending, and where they are focusing their efforts. This information is valuable for developing effective marketing strategies, allocating resources, and gaining a competitive advantage in the market. Therefore, all of the options mentioned - target audience, size of budget, and weight by market - can be inferred from competitive expenditure data.

    Most sales analysands over time indicate that product purchase takes place at fairly regular intervals and not capriciously.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Sales analysands, or the analysis of sales data, consistently show that product purchases occur at regular intervals rather than randomly or sporadically. This suggests that consumers tend to have a pattern or routine when it comes to buying products, indicating a certain level of predictability in their purchasing behavior. Therefore, the statement is true.

    If a creative strategy calls for certain kinds of media such as those that reproduce ads in high-fidelity color, then the cost or waste is often disregarded in favor of meeting creative requirements.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement suggests that when a creative strategy requires specific types of media that can accurately reproduce ads in high-fidelity color, the cost or potential waste associated with using such media is often overlooked. This implies that meeting the creative requirements takes precedence over financial considerations or concerns about resource utilization. Therefore, the answer is true.

    Brand X's BDI is extremly high in San Francisco. What is the significance of that statement?

    Correct Answer

BDI is a measure that compares the sales of a particular brand in a specific market to its sales in the overall market. A high BDI indicates that the brand is performing well in that particular market compared to its overall performance. Therefore, we can conclude that Brand X is performing well in San Francisco based on the high BDI.

    Consumers segments with an index number over 100, always have numerically more users than in other segments?

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because having an index number over 100 does not necessarily mean that a consumer segment has numerically more users than other segments. The index number is a relative measure that compares the size of a segment to a base segment. It indicates whether a segment is larger or smaller than the base segment, but it does not provide information about the actual number of users in each segment. Therefore, it is possible for a segment with an index number over 100 to have fewer users than other segments.

    To calculate gross rating points (GRP's) you multiply

    • HUTs times share

    • Reach times frequency

    • CPM times price

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Reach times frequency
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Reach times frequency" because to calculate gross rating points (GRP's), you need to multiply the reach (the percentage of the target audience that is exposed to an advertisement) by the frequency (the number of times the target audience is exposed to the advertisement). This formula helps measure the overall impact and effectiveness of an advertising campaign.

    The relationship between High CDI and low BDI can be defined?

    • High share of market and good market potential

    • High share of market and severe sales decline

    • Low share of market and good market potential

    • Low share of market and poor market potential

    Correct Answer
    A. Low share of market and good market potential
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Low share of market and good market potential." This means that when a product has a low market share but still has good market potential, it can result in a high CDI (Category Development Index) and a low BDI (Brand Development Index). This implies that there is room for growth and opportunity in the market for the product, despite its current low market share.

    Reach measurements tell planners how many prospects or households are in a media whicle's audience over a specified period time. These audience estimates are based on:

    • Unduplicated measurements

    • Duplicated measurements

    • Both A & B measurements

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Unduplicated measurements
    Explanation
    Unduplicated measurements are used to estimate the number of unique prospects or households in a media vehicle's audience over a specific period of time. This means that each individual or household is only counted once, regardless of how many times they are exposed to the media vehicle. Duplicated measurements, on the other hand, would count each exposure as a separate instance, potentially inflating the audience size. Therefore, unduplicated measurements provide a more accurate representation of the reach of a media vehicle.
