Question

Your Competitive Intelligence team reports that a wave of product liability lawsuits is likely to cause Chester to pull the product Camp entirely off the market this year. Assume Chester scraps all capacity and inventory this round, completely writing off those assets and escrowing the proceeds to a settlement fund, and assume these lawsuits will have no effect on any other products of Chester or other companies. Without Chester's product Camp how much can the industry currently produce in the Core segment? Consider only products primarily in the Core segment last year. Ignore current inventories. Figures in thousands (000).

Answer 1

Five companies are in CORE segment

the companies are Art, Came , Cell , Dimo ,Dome

Calculation of total production of company

Company	Primary Segment	Capacity Next round
Art	Core	1150
Camp	Core	1300
Cell	Core	1500
Dimo	Core	1097
Dome	Core	1024
	Total Capacity	6071

total production of company without Camp's Production = 6071-1300=4771

these can work in two sessions

production = 4771*2 = 9542

the answer is 9542
