A "savings" claim in an advertisement cannot imply what?

  1. The amount specified is the selling price

  2. The savings are guaranteed

  3. The savings can be applied to future purchases

  4. The savings represent a discount

The correct answer is: The amount specified is the selling price

A "savings" claim in an advertisement cannot imply that the amount specified is the selling price because this can be misleading to consumers. Typically, the amount shown should represent a discount or a higher original price altered to suggest savings. If an advertisement implies that the savings figure is the selling price, it could lead consumers to mistakenly believe they are paying less than the actual price, which violates advertising regulations and principles of transparency. Consumers should be able to trust that advertisements accurately represent prices and potential savings without ambiguity.
