Q3: Which of the following items can impact your company's sensor sales? The technical specifications of
the sensor (Age, Performance, Size & MTBF) The money spent on Promotion and Accessibility The price of
the sensor All of the above
A: All of the above
Q4: Market Share is: The Customer Awareness & Accessibility Scores. The increase in industry unit sales
expected each year for a particular customer segment. The percentage of unit sales captured by our
company in a particular customer segment. The December Customer Survey score.
