What term defines the number of times sales in a given price bracket occur over a fixed period of time?

• A. Sales frequency
• B. Roll
• C. Section
• D. Satin finish

Answer: (A)

Sales frequency captures how often items in a specific price range sell during a set period. This rate shows how often demand occurs in that bracket, which is crucial for planning stock, timing replenishments, and designing promotions. If a price bracket sells frequently, it signals quick turnover and suggests allocating more shelf space or earlier reorders. If the frequency is low, you might carry less stock or explore pricing or merchandising changes to stimulate demand. This concept is different from total sales value or units sold, which measure overall volume or revenue rather than how often sales happen within a given price range. Other terms like roll, section, or satin finish describe physical attributes or categories, not the pattern of sales over time.
