Multiple Choice

He knew he had to be equitable and felt strongly that each set of counties should have a market potential about equal to all the other sets. He needed some quantifiable measure of the market potential for each county, and he didn't want to use any Census data because he felt like this was outdated. Which secondary data source should Walt use?

A) County Maps International, Market Potential Edition
B) Statistical Abstract of the United States
C) Survey of Buying Power
D) Information provided by each county's chamber of commerce
E) World Market Potentials
