Solution

The correct option is A IV > I > II > III
The correct order of the dominating power of the different effects on the stability of intermediates can be remembered using the trick "AERHI".
A = Aromaticity
E = Equivalent resonating structures
R = Resonance effect
H = Hyperconjugation
I = Inductive effect

Therefore, the correct order is IV > I > II > III. Hence option (a) is correct.
