Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Predicted service is the level of service quality a customer believes is likely to occur. Desired service is the level of service quality a customer actually wants from a service encounter. Adequate service is the level of service quality a customer is willing to accept. Customer satisfaction is calculated by comparing predicted service and perceived service. Perceived service adequacy, which compares adequate service and perceived service, and perceived service superiority, which compares desired service and perceived service, are measures of service quality.
