Answer to Question 1

It is impossible to determine from the given information. If both companies had an inventory of 100 cars and both companies were open for 365 days/year, the answer would be Company W because:

Company W revenues = 56  100  365 = 2,044,000
Company V revenues = 42  100  365 = 1,533,000

If Company V had an inventory of 100 cars and Company W had an inventory of 70 cars (both open 365 days), the answer would be different because:

Company V revenues = 1,533,000
Company W revenues = 56  70  365 = 1,430,800

Answer to Question 2

Airline  RevPASM (Revenue Per Available Seat Mile)
Spa  RevPATH (Revenue Per Available Treatment-room Hour)
Barber Shop  RevPACH (Revenue Per Available Chair Hour)
Restaurant  RevPASH (Revenue Per Available Seat Hour)

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
