Answer:

Note that goods that are considered in general have a broad demand and goods with broad demand are inelastic as there are no substitutes for them. Goods that are specific by nature have narrow demand and have elastic demand because consumers can switch to others if the price is increased slightly.

Hence, Mayonnaise in general, Washing machines and beer have inelastic demand as there are no close substitutes. The remaining three, namely, specific brand of mayonnaise, Chevrolet automobiles and Tesla automobiles have elastic demand as there are substitutes and consumers/users will switch to others if the price is no more favorable.

Explanation:

given data

form to reduce errors =  $15,000

customer complaints = 75,000

Verifying = 30,000

Correcting errors = 60,000

Total = $180,000

sales = $3,000,000

to find out

total sales are the internal failure costs

solution

internal failture cost  = correcting error in form   ...........1

internal failture cost  =  $60000

and

internal failture cost as % of total cost is here as

internal failture cost to sale = \frac{internal\ failture\ cost}{sales}   .......2

internal failture cost to sale = \frac{60000}{3000000}

internal failture cost to sale = 2%

so total sales are the internal failure costs is 2%

This type of doctrine is no longer the main doctrine used in most U.S states by the 20th century, but it was commonplace during the late 19th century.
