Explanation

Important note: There appears to be an error in the provided answer key. The marked correct answer (B) conflicts with the standard definition used in marketing, business, and economics curricula.

Option A is the correct answer.

Product bundling is a pricing and marketing strategy where multiple products or accessories are grouped together and sold as a single package at one combined price - this is precisely what option A describes. Classic examples include a smartphone sold with a case and charger, or a software suite bundled with support services.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• B ("putting all products in one shipping package") describes physical logistics, not a pricing or sales strategy. Bundling is about how products are sold and priced, not how they are packed for delivery.
• C ("two devices for the price of one") describes a BOGO (Buy One Get One) promotion, which is a specific discount deal, not bundling in the general sense.
• D ("making sure all products arrive at the same time") describes order fulfillment or supply chain coordination - unrelated to bundling.

Memory tip: Think of a bundle like a cable TV package - you're not getting one channel, you're getting many channels grouped together at one price. Bundling = grouped products, single price.

If this is from an official exam or textbook, I'd recommend cross-referencing the source material, as the provided answer key appears to contain an error.
