Which time-definite service should you recommend when a package must arrive the next day, but at a lesser cost?

• A. FedEx Standard Overnight
• B. FedEx First Overnight
• C. FedEx Priority Overnight
• D. FedEx 2Day

Answer: (A)

When you need next-day delivery but want to keep costs down, choose the time-definite service that still delivers the next day but with a later delivery window. Among the options that arrive the next business day, the standard overnight service typically costs less than the early-morning options, making it the more economical choice. The other next-day services offer earlier delivery times (and higher prices), while the two-day service would not meet the “next day” requirement. So, standard overnight gives you next-day arrival at a lower cost.
