Q15:

TrueSave is a mail-order company that ships electronic products from its warehouses to

customers worldwide. The company’s shipping manager is proposing that customer

orders be packed with newer, more expensive packing materials that virtually eliminate

damage during shipping. The manager argues that overall costs would essentially remain

unaffected, since the extra cost of the new packing materials roughly equals the current

cost of replacing products returned by customers because they arrived in damaged

condition.

Which of the following would it be most important to ascertain in determining whether

implementing the shipping manager’s proposal would have the argued-for effect on costs?

A. Whether the products shipped by TrueSave are more vulnerable to incurring

damage during shipping than are typical electronic products

B. Whether electronic products are damaged more frequently in transit than are most

other products shipped by mail-order companies

C. Whether a sizable proportion of returned items are returned because of damage

already present when those items were packed for shipping

D. Whether there are cases in which customers blame themselves for product

damage that, though present on arrival of the product, is not discovered until later

E. Whether TrueSave continually monitors the performance of the shipping

companies it uses to ship products to its customers

答案是c,d为何不对?~

题中的方法是用新的支出来抵掉以前那部分支出,而D并不带来那部分支出(即cost of replacing products returned by customers because they arrived in damaged),所以与问题无关啊

而C在讲要看想抵掉的那部分支出是不是在包装以前的损毁所带来的,如果是那样的话,即使用了新的包装,那么东西还是损坏的,那么顾客还是会return的,那么还是会带来cost of replacing products returned by customers because they arrived in damaged,那么新的包装就是没有用的

另外我想说说E,开始觉得它挺迷惑的,不知道我的理解对不对,看到选项中他讲是否会继续monitor the performance of the shipping company, 开始我想monitor the performance of the shipping company 会使得shipping company小心的运输从而减少货物损坏率,但是又一想,既然说是continue,那么原来也是monitor的,既然原来也损坏,那么现在如果包装不变的话损坏的可能性是一样的,所以前后来说在这一条件上是没有变化的,所以这一选项就是无关选项了,差一点就选这个了

A呢..如果回答是.那就是说TS运的products 更容易受损,那么你把它们包好,就可以节省很多多钱..如果那样products 不容易受损,那你花那么多钱在包装上面岂不是浪费..

虽然没有C好,但我也想不出A为什么不对..我在想问题是不是出在than are typical electronic products"上.
