It would be most beneficial to wait before buying a smartphone.

Answer: Option 2.

Explanation:

The price of the good has a direct effect on the demand of that particular good. The demand of the good is indirectly related with the price of the good. With the rise in the price of the good, the demand for that good will fall and with the fall in the price of the god, the demand will increase.

Since there is fall in the price of the smartphone from $500 to $399 with in a span of six months only. In six months only there is a fall of two hundred dollars, so it is beneficial to wait for some more time before the purchase of the smart phone is made.
