6. Research Objective
• To determining the composition of most
preferred product ( Car type, fuel Type and
Price) , where the customer finds maximum

8. Sample Design
• The method which we chose to get sample
frame is Convenient sampling, the sample size
is 20.
9. Data Collection Design
• Data was collected from the respondent’s
order of preferences through the list of
combinations that were provided by us.
10. Statistical Design
• The combinations were generated by
orthogonal method from SPSS.
• The responses were tabulated manually on
SPSS data file.
11. Operational Design
• The operations were carried out with the
Syntax of a pre-programmed conjoint analysis.
• The results were analyzed with the help of
utilities table and importance table.
