Although homeowners' energy conservation upgrades often pay for themselves in the long run, many homeowners cannot afford the upfront costs. So, to promote home energy conservation, a provincial government plans to pay the initial costs for homeowners' energy conservation upgrades. Homeowners who receive this benefit will then pay the province back with interest over the next decade through surcharges on their property taxes.
Which of the following, if true, provides the strongest grounds for doubting that the government's plan, if implemented, will be effective?
A. Many homeowners in the province have not made energy conservation upgrades mainly because they are unaware of the potential savings.
B. For most home upgrades under the plan, the annual property tax surcharges will be lower than the annual savings from reduced energy usage.
C. Other provincial governments have successfully implemented several other less expensive methods of promoting home energy conservation.
D. Even if a few homeowners make energy conservation upgrades, the province's overall energy usage will still be excessive.
E. Most banks in the province readily offer loans for home renovations on much more favorable terms than those the government plans to offer.
In a national survey, 50 percent of the surveyed households reported having credit card debt. But credit card companies reported that 76 percent of the nation's households owed them money. However, detailed follow-up investigations found that almost none of the surveyed households had reported their credit card debt inaccurately and that the credit card companies' reports were also accurate.
Which of the following, if true, would most help resolve the apparent discrepancy described above?
A. Many of the surveyed households did not answer the question about their credit card debt.
B. In several other surveys, even households that tried to report their debt levels honestly have tended to significantly underestimate their overall debt
C. In the nation as a whole, 50 percent of the households owe about 76 percent of the total household debt owed to credit card companies.
D. The method of choosing households for the survey was unintentionally biased toward selecting households that were especially likely to have credit card debt.
E. At least 26 percent of the surveyed households owed money to lenders other than credit card companies.
