Question

There is no difference between you driving your car on public streets and Ford selling a product that it knows will sometimes explode. True or False? What unmentioned factor might your answer depend on?

Answer 1

Answer:

1) The statement is: True.

2) The correct answer is letter:  Cost-Benefit Analysis.

Explanation:

2) The Cost-Benefit Analysis is a tool used to make decisions based on cost and benefit. You can use the Cost-Benefit Analysis to evaluate a single option or compare two or more alternatives to choose the best. The Cost-Benefit Analysis is used to calculate all the costs of a particular decision and compare them with the expected benefits of that decision.

1) In the example, driving on a street has the cost of being in danger of crashing but the benefit of traveling comfortably in your vehicle. Ford selling cars could cost some of them -for an "x" reason- to explode but the benefit is to profit from the sales. Thus, there is no fundamental difference comparing the costs individuals are exposed while driving a car on the street and Ford being exposed to their cars' explosion.
