The answer is:
Revenues Year 3 = Revenue (filters) + Revenue (air purifiers)
Revenue (filters) = ([installed purifiers at end of year 2] * [2 filters] X [price/filter]) + ([additional installed purifiers in year 3] X [average of 1 filter X price/filter])
Installed purifiers by end of year 2 = [sales of purifiers in year 1] + [sales of purifiers in year 2]
= 0.5M*5% + 0.5M*5%*1.1
= 0.025M + 0.0275M = 0.0525M
Purifiers sold in year 3 = 0.5M X 5% X 1.12 = 0.03M Revenue (filters) = (0.0525M*2*$450) + (0.03M*1*$450) = $47M + $13.5M = $60.5M
Revenue (air purifiers) = 0.5M X 1.12 X 0.05 * $3715 = $112.4M Total sales = $60.5M + $112.4M = $173M
For Revenue from Filters
= They multipled the number of purifiers sold by 2 for the first 2 years, and for the third year, they only multiplied by once.
My rationale: Why not multiply by 4 and 2 respectively?
Given the fillers replacement= every 6 months.
Wouldn’t that be twice per year?
Do you also find the answer wrong?
