※ 引述《isss (Hua)》之铭言:
: Denoma, a major consumer-electronics maker, had a sizable decline in sales
: revenue for its most recent fiscal year. This result appears surprising,
: because electronics retailers report that although their overall sales were
: considerably lower than in the previous year, their sales revenue from
: Denoma models actually grew, largely thanks to some innovative and popular
: models that Denoma introduced.
: Which of the following, if true, does most to explain the apparently
: surprising result?
: A. Because of the need to educate the public about its new models’
: capabilities, Denoma’s advertising spending was higher than normal
: over the period.
以下提供几个GMAT商业用语的简单定义
profit = revenue - cost (spending)
revenue = unit price x quantity
cost = unit cost x quantity
而price则被demand与supply共同决定
: 想请教一下A选项为何是错误的?
: 若advertising spending 上升 也会导致revenue 相对减少
spending不算在revenue内,因此是无关选项。
从这边延伸出去,补充一个GMAT逻辑的大考点--动态平衡
只要讲到跟钱有关的东西,几乎都是在premise说收入/支出 增加/减少
最後说利润一定会增加/减少
这时候我们只要去想另外一边是否有变动,便可找出相关答案
以下举几个过去整理机经所遇到的动态平衡题:
1. 填空-酪农业(2015-04机经)
尽管牛奶加工商跟养奶牛的酪农收购原奶(unprocessed milk)的价格上升了,
但酪农却没有赚取更多的利润,因为_______。
填空 Ans:
乳牛吃的草料价格上升了。
2. 假设-房价上涨(2015-04机经)
某地过去几年的房价不断上涨,且人口也不断上升。
专家预测该地在未来几年人口会不断上升,因此房价应该也会不断上涨。
假设 Ans:
房子的 supply 不会跟 demand 一起上升。
3.削弱-贸易逆差(2015-05机经)
某国在某段时间的贸易逆差减少了,这代表该国的鼓励出口政策有收到成效。
削弱 Ans:
该段时间该国的进口大量减少。
