Answer to August 29, 2011 Question
Answer: C
Answers A and B are incorrect because Chapter 70 Subheading Note 1 defines lead crystal at 24% and our glasses are 22% by weight. It’s also important to know that stemware includes wine glasses. We also need to note that there are four glasses in each box and the box of four glasses is valued at $8.00. This means that each glass is valued at $2.00 each.
Answer D is incorrect because it includes glasses that are valued over $5.00 each.
Answer E is not correct because it provides for other drinking glasses (not stemware) valued over $5.00.
Answer C is the best answer because it provides for stemware valued under $3 each.
