1. In 2003, the Making Hits Record Company spent 40% of its total budget on the production of ten albums, 30% of its budget on the marketing of these albums, and the remainder of its budget on overhead costs. In the same year, the Song Factory Record Company spent 20% of its total budget on the production of 10 albums and 60% of its budget on the marketing of these albums. Making Hits sold a total of 800,000 copies of the ten records it produced in 2003, while the Song Factory sold a total of 1,600,000 copies of the ten records it produced in 2003. Assuming each company met its budget, which of the following conclusions is best supported by the information given above?

A The amount of money spent on marketing is directly related to the number of copies sold.

B Making Hits spent more money on the production of its albums in 2003 than did the Song Factory.

C Song Factory’s total revenue from the sale of albums produced in 2003 was higher than that of Making Hits.

D In 2003, Making Hits spent a larger percentage of its budget on overhead costs than did the Song Factory.

E The Song Factory sold more copies of its 2003 albums than Making Hits did because the Song Factory spent a higher percentage of its budget on the marketing of its albums.

2. Due to high jet fuel costs, airline carriers are looking for new ways to increase revenues and thereby counteract declining profits. Airline A has proposed increasing the number of passengers that can fit on its airplanes by creating several standing room only “seats” in which passengers would be propped against a padded backboard and held in place with a harness. This proposal, since it relates to passenger safety, cannot be implemented without prior approval by the Federal Aviation Administration. The above statements, if true, indicate that Airline A has made which of the following conclusions?

A The addition of standing room only “seats” will generate more revenue than the cost of ensuring that these seats meet safety standards.

B The Federal Aviation Administration will approve Airline A’s specific proposal.

C The revenue generated by the addition of standing room only “seats” is greater than the current cost of jet fuel.

D There are no safer ways in which Airline A can increase revenues.

E Passenger safety is less important than increasing revenue.

1 注意题目当中仅仅提及比率，并没有给可以计算出数值大小的条件，所以money的量不能确定，收入多少也无法确定，ABC都不能选择；对于E，没有条件支撑这么绝对的推理，这明显不是题目中给的条件所能support的。
2 前提：油价上涨成本高
结论：增加一种新的standing room
假设即为：增加这种新的room的收入会高于成本
这样公司可以多赚钱，增加收入，弥补下降的收益

BA(第一题应该是D)
分析：前提：MAKING HIT 40%在制作，30%在市场，30%管理费用；SONG FACTOR 20%制作，60%市场，（20%在管理——stimulus没说）
误选B是没有考虑两个公司预算综述不一样，所以百分比大小不能直接得出moeny的大小，但是我觉得D也没说剩下的20%钱干嘛去了，所以我对D选项也感觉不太好，但是最后一句啊领个公司都用完了预算，就算SONG FACTOR最后没有把20%预算都用在管理上，但是Making公司话30%预算在管理上肯定是多于SONg公司的

1. 【Conclusion】数学计算题 ⚠️做找conclusion的题目时不要推测/假设premise里没有的信息！
D. OVERHEAD COST: MH30% v.s. SFR≦20%

2. 错选了C；没搞明白的可能是题目问的是什么，虽然写了conclusion感觉其实在问assumption；搬运解析：
(A) 是正确的。因为A航空公司知道它的建议必须符合安全标准，所以它一定认 为符合标准的成本是值得的。换句话说，A航空公司实现其增加利润目标的唯 一途径是实施能够产生比其成本更多的收入的想法。因此，A航空公司必须得 出结论，只准站立的 "座位 "符合这一标准。
(C) A航空公司的目标只是为了 "抵制由高价航空燃油引起的利润下降"。但是， 这并不意味着该提案必须完全缓解航空燃油的成本。只要该提案在增加收入的 同时不附带增加成本，它就会以某种方式(即使是相对较小的方式)抵消利润 的下降。
