Question about
Case
I want to receive updates regarding this question via email.

Wine consumption

Hello,

Can anyone please clarify as to why the wine bottles consumption is set to 50 per year. 

As far as I understood, 10 bottles are consumed every month, which should lead into 120 bottles per year?

 

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Hi there,

Can you clarify where you are seeing that?

The solution clearly states 10 bottles/month and 120/year

Just after the section you highlighted,

"so the drinking section is a steady-state cellar of 50 bottles."

What does that mean?
