A Satisfying Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B Sufficient Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C Optimal Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D Satisficing Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
E Familiar Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

According to Simon, because of bounded rationality, the decision made is ‘satisficing’ in nature i.e. they only satisfy and suffice but not maximise. Thus, a decision maker is looking for a satisfactory solution for a problem in the given situation and the constraints and not for the ideal solution as that may lead to an endless search.
