(KN) Times of recession when demand is lower for business offering normal goods
(AN) due to this the business will likely offer lower prices to attract consumer demand,
(AN+) hence due to this measure being taken, survival becomes the right business objective at the time of recession in an economy for a business.

(KN) At the introduction stage of the non-innovative product
(AN) as due to the product being at it's introductory stage and being non-innovative it posses a threat somewhat to the business, as if the product is disliked the demand for it may decrease,
(AN+) hence due to this the business may offer some additional advantages for buying the non-innovative product, in order to survive in the market, as at the time survival was the right business objective.
