Start the planIt’s very hard to determine correctly the efficiency of new machines offered to manufacturers. For example, a new machine producing cartridge cases is considered efficient if it can produce a large number of cartridge cases in a short time. Does this prove the efficiency of the machine? What if a significant portion of the cartridge cases it produces is defective?
The implied objection to the above measure of machine efficiency is based on questioning which of the following statements?
(A)Producing cartridge cases is the primary purpose of the machine discussed in the passage.
(B)The number of cartridge cases produced in a certain amount of time by a cartridge case machine is relevant to determining machine’s efficiency.
(C)Machines producing cartridge cases are representative of all other machines.
(D)The quality of the product produced can be ignored when determining the time efficiency of a certain machine.
(E)The quality of the product may decrease when the quantity of the product produced in a certain amount of time increases.
