Answer: Kevin should consider this to be a "new-task" buying situation.

Step-by-step explanation:

When someone is buying something for the first time, such as a business, it is called a new-task buying situation. This generally occurs when the buyer decides to buy something they have generally had no interest in before. This will require a lot of evaluation for the purchaser as they need to research the business and require information from the vendor.
