Answer: D. A greater variety of goods for fair prices.

Consumerism is an economic concept that propels the interest of a consumer in an economy. In other words, consumerism bases production on the demands of the consumers. In a bid to raise the US market in 1920, US manufacturers promoted and advocated for consumerism in the economy. The fostering of consumerism brought a lot of profits to manufacturers as they sold a lot of products.

The trading of these products at fair prices led to even more good profit generation. A variety of products were sold at surprisingly fair prices. This period (the 1920s) is believed to be a very prosperous time for Americans as they had enough money to buy just what they needed as well as enough money to support their families and do other things.
