1.
For the year 2005, which company has realised the lowest average unit sales price for a PC ?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Although it seems to be Commodore, the answer cannot be determined due to the fact that we are unaware of the break-up of the sales value and volume of companies compromising the other categories.

Please check - OTHERS category.
Now there can be multiple companies in -the OTHERS category (which would be different than those listed in question like Dell or Lenovo etc).
Since there any multiple companies involved in the OTHERS category, we cannot determine who has the lowest AV unit price.
Hope it helps.

I think that value and volume are given for NEW YORK from this data we can find value and volume for individual companies also by taking a percentage of a particular amount.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

What's meant by "value", isn't value the price amount, like a monetary valuation of the companies? Anyone explain me.

The procedure for finding a single unit sales value is to VALUE by VOLUME.
But as another section is unknown (it can be anything) we might have the lowest value from any of those companies hence commodore can't be concluded as the lowest.

Here we can not determine because we only know how many units are sold but don't know at what price it is sold because here cumulative price is given but individual company laptop price is not given.

Answer should be A.

Yes, the answer can easily determine because it was given there in percentage (8%...).
We only have found out 8% of the total price amount.
Please correct the above answer.

The answer is COMMODORE,
Because if we calculate for IBM PC in average unit sale price in question 3 of this section, which answer is $3080 per unit.
Same is for all, where we found that lowest is Commodore ($259 per unit).

At first, I went to Commodore, but once, reading Varun comment, I got it. Just tricky with the word "others".
