4Other factors rather than the inventory contributed to the decline of the revenue of the Largo Piano.
A4. The following appeared in a memorandum from the CEO of Volare Airlines.
“Even though our record last year of on-time takeoffs and arrivals was not as good as that of several other major airline companies, our total revenues were among the highest of any airline. Clearly, an on-time record is not the passengers’ first concern, and so we should not risk reducing our revenues by trying to improve our record. Instead, we should try to attract new passengers by announcing a program of incentives and discounts. Consider that Flugel Airlines saw ridership increase last year after it lowered fares on its most popular routes, whereas Aero Airlines lost customers even after its president appeared on television to apologize publicly for flight delays.”
1Most of the passengers chose the VOlare Airlines may just had a try, and will not make such choices again since they concern the punctuality a lot.
2Other company's strategy may not be suit for the Volare.
3It is profit rather than the revenue that is the determinant of the final decision of a company. No resolution can be reached unless a benefit-cost analysis has been made.

我觉得作者的这两句话没有矛盾。

他是想说

1我们公司的“准时”报告不怎么好，但是收入一样不错。

2某某公司的老总都为延误道歉了，他公司的收入也没变好。

但是他的推理显然是有问题的。

首先是因为我提纲里的第一点

其次是可能这家公司其他的方面十分出色而抵消了延误的不足

最后那家老总道歉的公司也很可能是因为其他方面也做的很不好而导致业绩很差的。
