    21.The following appeared in a memo from the new vice president of Sartorian, a company that manufactures men's clothing.
    "Five years ago, at a time when we had difficulties in obtaining reliable supplies of high-quality wool fabric, we discontinued production of our deluxe alpaca overcoats. Now that we have a new fabric supplier, we should resume production. This coat should sell very well: since we have not offered an alpaca overcoat for five years and since our major competitor no longer makes an alpaca overcoat, there will be pent-up customer demand. Also, since the price of most types of clothing has risen in each of the past five years, customers should be willing to pay significantly higher prices for alpaca overcoats than they did five years ago, and our company profits will increase."
    A、五年前人們喜歡穿A外套,并不表示現(xiàn)在人們還會(huì)穿A外套。這五年人們的穿衣喜好會(huì)改變,或者已習(xí)慣去其他外套。競(jìng)爭(zhēng)者不生產(chǎn)可能從側(cè)面說(shuō)明該外套已不再受歡迎。
    B、其他面料漲價(jià)了,A面料不一定漲。如果A面料也漲了,消費(fèi)者也未必愿意付更高的錢購(gòu)買A外套。
    C、即使消費(fèi)者愿意花費(fèi)更高的價(jià)錢購(gòu)買A外套,該公司也未必能夠盈利。經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)常識(shí),利潤(rùn)等于營(yíng)業(yè)額減去成本。生產(chǎn)成本,5年為在市面上出現(xiàn),需要很大的成本來(lái)建立品牌。
    22.The following appeared in a memo from the president of a company that builds and sells new homes in Steel City.
    "Over the past five years, the population of Steel City has increased by more than 20 percent, and family incomes in Steel City have risen much faster than the national average. Nationwide, sales of houses priced above $150,000 have increased more than have sales of lower-priced houses. Such data indicate that we should make changes in our business to increase company profits. First, we should build fewer low-priced houses than we did last year and focus instead on building houses designed to sell at above $150,000. Second, we should hire additional workers so that we can build a larger total number of houses than we did last year."
    A、調(diào)查類錯(cuò)誤。懷疑該全國(guó)調(diào)查樣本選擇的隨機(jī)性。如果不隨機(jī),則調(diào)查結(jié)果不具有參考價(jià)值。即使該調(diào)查取樣隨機(jī),也是過(guò)去5年,并不表示現(xiàn)在以及今后也能如此。
    B、即使該調(diào)查結(jié)果能夠反映現(xiàn)在以及今后,那也是全國(guó)的,并不一定適用于SC地區(qū)。正如作者所說(shuō)的,SC的居民收入增長(zhǎng)高并不意味著SC的居民愿意購(gòu)買高價(jià)房。
    C、即使SC的居民愿意購(gòu)買,該公司也未必能夠盈利。經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)常識(shí),利潤(rùn)等于營(yíng)業(yè)額減去成本。建造高價(jià)房可能要比低價(jià)房高很多的成本,如果該成本多于銷售收入的增長(zhǎng),則不會(huì)產(chǎn)生盈利,甚至?xí)踹x虧損。
