I'm going to have to go with D) 200 on this one. Wait, no, that's not right. It's gotta be A) 500. Or is it? *scratches head* Ah, forget it, I'll just guess and hope for the best.

This question is a piece of cake! The answer is clearly C) 300. Why? Because 5% is five times bigger than 1%, so the index must be 5/1 = 500. Duh!

Hmm, let me think about this... If the product's market share is 5% and the market's population share is 1%, then the index should be 5/1 = 500. So I'll go with A) 500.

A) 500 seems like the correct answer to me. It makes sense that the index would be the ratio of the product's market share to the market's population share.

Yes, 500 is the correct answer. It shows how well a product is performing in a specific market compared to the overall population.

I think the answer is 500 too. It's a simple calculation based on market share and population share.

Yes, that makes sense. It's the ratio of market share to population share.

I'm pretty sure the answer is C) 300. The product's market share is 5% of the total market, and the market itself contains 1% of the country's population. So the Category Development Index should be 5/1 = 500.

I think the answer is C) 300 because the Category Development Index is calculated by dividing the percentage of sales in a market by the percentage of population in that market, then multiplying by 100. So in this case, it would be (5/1) * 100 = 500.
