Answer to Question 1

Answer: B
Explanation: The Baby Boomers are defined as those people who were born in the decades that immediately followed World War II. The group that followed the Baby Boomers has been termed Generation X. Those that followed Gen X, including current people of college age, are identified as Gen Yers, the correct response. So far, no group has been identified as Gen Z, so that response is incorrect.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C
Explanation: Based on sheer size, the Baby Boomers are the best choice. They are also the oldest generation and therefore are more likely to have more disposable income than Gen Xers, Gen Yers, or the Post-Millennials.
