5. • Age: the magazine is suitable for all ages as there's all different
genres featured, however it's targeted towards 13-50 years olds
as they are most likely to like the content.

number of men and women will buy the magazine.

spend on the magazine if it's expensive, especially teenagers so
it'll only cost £3.99.

so there will be all different genres to suit all cultures.
