36.

Outsourcing is the practice of obtaining from an independent supplier a product or service that a company has previously provided for itself.Vernon, Inc., a small manufacturing company that has in recent years experienced a decline in its profits, plans to boost its profits by outsourcing those parts of its business that independent suppliers can provide at lower cost than Vernon can itself.







Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the prediction that Vernon's plan will achieve its goal?






(A) Among the parts of its business that Vernon does not plan to outsource are some that require standards of accuracy too high for most independent suppliers to provide at lower cost than Vernon can.




(B) Vernon itself acts as an independent supplier of specialized hardware items to certain manufacturers that formerly made those items themselves.




(C) Relatively few manufacturers that start as independent suppliers have been able to expand their business and become direct competitors of the companies they once supplied.




(D) Vernon plans to select the independent suppliers it will use on the basis of submitted bids.




(E) Attending to certain tasks that Vernon performs relatively inefficiently has taken up much of the time and effort of top managers whose time would have been better spent attending to Vernon's core business.


顺便翻译一下原文 谢谢

outsourcing, (可以理解为外包吧),就是一种公司从外部机构来获得资源的

方式。这种方法的好处就是公司自己不需要去花时间和精力去寻找需要的资源了。

现在vernon打算用这种outsourcing的方式,作者认为公司因此能达到减少cost的

效果

E就是解释了为什么能够达到减少成本:一些manager花了大量时间精力在一些

certain task上,如果用外包的话 可以省下这些时间精力

我也想问一下这道题,那个C选项为什么不对呢?
C从表明不会带来竞争来说明plan可以打得到目的。。。谢谢

C: Relatively few manufacturers that start as independent suppliers have been able to expand their business and become direct competitors of the companies they once supplied.


外包的目的是为了降低成本、增加利润,暗含的前提就是供应商不会和它自己竞争。

C只能表明供应商不会和外包的公司竞争,只能说他不会削弱外包公司的利润,但无法加强这样会增加外包的公司的利润。

原文提及:外包可以增加利润,所以E比C好
