What should be included with each supply or service on the price list?

• A. A description: size, colour, material, brand name, model name or number; the price; statement of whether taxes are included or not
• B. Only the price
• C. Only the description
• D. The tax status only

Answer: (A)

Clear, transparent pricing requires every item or service to be identified, priced, and labeled with tax information. The description portion—covering details such as size, colour, material, brand name, model name or number—lets the consumer know exactly what is being offered, which is essential when options vary in ways that affect value and suitability. The price shows the actual amount to be paid. The tax status indicates whether that price already includes taxes or if tax will be added, so the final amount is predictable. If any of these elements are missing, the listing can mislead or confuse, and price comparisons become unreliable. Including all three elements—description, price, and tax status—provides full clarity, consistency, and fairness in pricing.
