QUESTION

All of the following, if true, support the decision to produce the thermal leak detector EXCEPT:

A) Rising energy costs have made the identification of energy leaks more valuable.
B) A significant proportion of customers live in settings that have a common fuel bill shared by many residents.
C) Media coverage of the weather as well as energy costs encourages consumers to identify and eliminate sources of energy leakage.
D) The technology that the thermal leak detector uses is simple and easy to use.
E) Most consumers routinely perform simple maintenance tasks in their homes.

ANSWER

Answer: B
Explanation: B) All of the choices support the decision except Choice B. If lots of people have a common fuel bill, then those people have less of an incentive to find energy leaks. In contrast, high energy costs (Choice A), more media coverage (Choice C), ease of use (Choice D), and general willingness to perform maintenance (Choice E) all weigh in favor of the thermal leak detector.
