The assumption of transitivity says that

a. For any two bundles, the consumer can establish a preference ordering.
b. Any bundle is at least as good as itself.
c. If A is preferred to B and B is preferred to C, than A is preferred to C.
d. If bundle A is preferred to bundle B, there is a region around A such that any bundle C that lies in that region is preferred to B

c. If A is preferred to B and B is preferred to C, than A is preferred to C.

Explanation:

The assumption of transitivity states that If A is preferred to B and B is preferred to then A is preferred to C. The big problem with this assumption is that these three decisions are not made at the same time and as we know that the tastes of different people may change at different point of time and hence it is not considered as an effective assumption.

in 2001, dell computer became the world’s largest personal computer vendor, continuing to

gain market share and post profits in an industry struggling with slumping sales and billions of

dollars in losses. dell sells 90% of its pcs directly to the final customer, largely bypassing the

reseller channel that accounts for most of the world’s pc sales. this direct customer relationship

is the key to dell’s business model, and provides distinct advantages over the indirect sales

model. dell’s direct relationship with the customer allows it to tailor its offerings to customer

needs, offer add-on products and services, and use the internet to offer a variety of customer

services. in addition, dell’s pcs are built to customers’ specifications upon receipt of an order,

giving dell additional advantages over indirect pc vendors who must try to forecast demand and

ship products based on those forecasts. dell’s direct sales and build-to-order model has achieved

superior performance in the pc industry in terms of inventory turnover, reduced overhead, cash

conversion, and return on investment (kraemer, et al., 2000).
