Observations and Findings
Hypothesis results
Hypothesis 1:- Calculated value is coming inside the limits of acceptance region so null hypothesis is not rejected. Thus the brand image is affecting a consumer’s choice and an important step in product selection.
Hypothesis 2:- Zcal value for “Ease of use” & “Aesthetic” taking as two variables is deep into rejection region, we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis that aesthetic is always given priority over other features of the bathroom appliances. We can also conclude that we do not have adequate information to give prioritise to attributes.

Observations and Findings
Hypothesis results Hypothesis 3:- Since the Ztab > Zcal ,null hypothesis is rejected
& We can clearly predict bathrooms are not just a portion of a house.
Hypothesis 4:- Since Zcal < Ztab , hence we can conclude that null hypothesis is rejected and hence we can accept the hypothesis that is or the Target consumer ready to pay large sum of moneyfor a new bathroom/kitchen (Master Bathroom)

Swot Analysis
STRENGTH:Worldwide market leader in premium bathroom fittings.Presence throughout 130 countries.Strong financials with a turnover of Euro 1010 million.The brand is synonymous to innovation and reliability.Superior design that are environment friendly.
WEAKNESS:Weak distribution network in India.Lack of manufacturing plant in India which further ups the already high price of the products.Lax marketing efforts in a new market like India where huge marketing efforts are to be put in to vie for consumer’s attention.Immensely high priced products for a price sensitive market like India.
OPPORTUNITIES:Booming construction and infrastructure development in South Asian and other developing countries.Higher disposable income with the Indian consumer as compared to earlier era when austerity was the prime virtue as against ostentatiousness of present times.Can introduce some lower cost variants to tap the middle income group market in India.
THREATS:Foreign players like Hans-Grohe have tied up with domestic giants like Jaquar to make use of their distribution channel.Price sensitivity of developing economies can cause the plans and forecasts of a company to go haywire.Aggressive marketing by local players like Jaquar which has a superior reach throughout India
