Analysis of Argument Question for the GMAT : 2003-2004
Argument 105
The following appeared in a memorandum written by the assistant manager of a store that sells gourmet food items from various countries.
“An interesting discovery was made last month at a local wine store: the store sold more French than Italian wine on days when recordings of French accordion music were played, but more Italian wine was sold on days when Italian songs were played. Therefore, I recommend that we put food specialties from one particular country on sale for a week at a time and play only music from that country while the sale is going on. By this means we will increase our profits in the same way that the wine store did, and we will be able to predict more precisely what items we should stock at any given time.” Discuss how well reasoned . . . etc.
