In many surveys, American consumers have expressed a willingness to spend up to 10 percent more for products that are ecologically sound. Encouraged by such surveys, Bleach-O Corporation promoted a new laundry detergent, Bleach-O Green, as safer for the environment. Bleach-O Green cost 5 percent more than typical detergents. After one year, Bleach-O Green had failed to capture a significant share of the detergent market and was withdrawn from sale.
Which of the following questions is LEAST likely to be relevant in determining the reasons for the failure of Bleach-O Green?
(A) How effective as a detergent was Bleach-O Green?
(B) How many other detergents on the market were promoted as safe for the environment?
(C) How much more did Bleach-O Green cost to manufacture than ordinary detergents?
(D) To what extent did consumers accept the validity of Bleach-O Green advertised and promoted to consumers?
(E) How effectively was Bleach-O Green advertised and promoted to consumers?

答案是C。
我的疑问是，这套evaluation的题目，明明题中提到“American consumers have expressed a willingness to spend up to 10 percent more for products that are ecologically sound”，而选项C就是与此有关的，为何不用考虑呢？

因为CONSUMER买东西的COST跟MANUFACTURE的COST不一样,作为CONSUMER不用考虑你的生产成本

但是它问的是 " reasons for the failure of Bleach-O Green" 为什么就不考虑制造成本呢？例如它的制造成本高于同样的20%，然而价格只高出其他10%。

Failure of Bleach-O Green refers to its failure to capture a significant share of the market.
Therefore,cost of production is irrelevant.
