QUESTION

This function of packaging allows retail stores to keep track of which products sell and which don’t and to reorder products when they run low.

A) to promote the product and differentiate it from competitors
B) to provide product information
C) to help consumers use the product
D) to indicate price and universal product code
E) to protect the product

ANSWER

Answer: D
Explanation: D) Most packages carry universal product codes (UPCs), bar codes printed on the package that can be read by bar code scanners. UPCs allow retail stores to change the prices within the store’s computer system, as well as to keep track of which products sell and which don’t and to reorder products when they run low.
