Question 5 • CMS 2026-2027 Economics and Personal Finance CREDIT RECOVERY

At what point does buying in bulk stop being a wise spending choice?

Answer
A
when the consumer has a lot of space to store bulk items
B
when bulk items are not on sale anymore
C
when the consumer buys more than is needed
D
when costs rise too quickly due to demand

Explanation

Buying in bulk is a wise choice when the lower price helps you save money on items you will actually use. It stops being wise when you buy more than you need, since unused items may go to waste and the extra spending can outweigh the savings. Therefore, the correct choice is “when the consumer buys more than is needed.”
