Answer:

b. Dogs

Explanation:

The BCG matrix is used to analyse the performance of an organization's product in terms of the market growth and market share. Going by the BCG matrix, there are 4 types of products based on the measurement criteria mentioned earlier. These are Star, Cash cow, Question mark and Dogs.

Stars are high performers with high market growth and high market share. Cash cows have high market share but low market growth. Question marks are products with high market growth but low market share. Dogs are the poor performing products with low market share and low growth rate. Hence the division as identified by General Motors for closure is in the division of Dogs.

what would the length of time you have had a checking or savings account help determine your credit score?
GenaCL600 [577]

It shows a pattern of responsibility.

If you have only had accounts for 1 month, it doesn't really give a full picture of whether or not you always make your payments on time, etc. However if you have had accounts for 20 years, creditors have more history to look through to determine if you are responsible.

Keep in mind, checking and savings accounts are not the primary type of accounts that creditors want to look at because those only deal with spending money you already have. Lenders really want to know how you handle money that you <em>borrow</em>, such as school loans, credit cards, rent payments, and auto loans.
