Expenses, especially for electricity, are high, however, and the spinach produced costs about four times as much as washed California field spinach, the spinach commonly sold throughout the United States. <\/p>\n<p>[b]Which of the following, if true, best supports a projection that the spinach-growing facility near Chicago will be profitable?[\/b]<\/p>\n<p>(A) Once the operators of the facility are experienced, they will be able to cut operating expenses by about 25 percent.<br \/>\n(B) There is virtually no scope for any further reduction in the cost per pound for California field spinach.<br \/>\n(C) Unlike washed field spinach, the hydroponically grown spinach is untainted by any pesticides or herbicides and thus will sell at exceptionally high prices to such customers as health food restaurants.<br \/>\n(D) Since spinach is a crop that ships relatively well, the market for the hydroponically grown spinach is no more limited to the Chicago area than the market for California field spinach is to California.<br \/>\n(E) A second hydroponic facility is being built in Canada, taking advantage of inexpensive electricity and high vegetable prices.<\/p>\n<div>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/forum\/near-chicago-a-newly-built-hydroponic-spinach-factory-159971.html\">Question Discussion &amp; Explanation<\/a><br \/>\n<strong>Correct Answer<\/strong> <span style=\"background-color:#fff;color:#fff\">- C -<\/span> (click and drag your mouse to see the answer)\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><strong>Like these questions?<\/strong> Get the GMAT Club question collection: <a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/tests\/\">online at GMAT Club<\/a> OR <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fentity%2FGMAT-Club%2FB0048PPF3U%3Fie%3DUTF8%26ref_%3Dntt_athr_dp_pel_1&tag=gmatclub-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=390957\">on your Kindle<\/a> OR <a href=\"https:\/\/click.linksynergy.com\/fs-bin\/stat?id=PJTlq5NYqfE&offerid=146261&type=3&subid=blog&tmpid=1826&RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fapp%252Fgmat-toolkit%252Fid328345537%253Fmt%253D8%2526uo%253D6%2526partnerId%253D30\">on your iPhone\/iPad<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/category\/blog\/gmat-tests\/\"><strong>Browse all GMAT Questions of the Day<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Subscribe to GMAT Question of the Day:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/feedburner.google.com\/fb\/a\/mailverify?uri=GMAT-Question-of-the-day&amp;loc=en_US\">E-mail<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/GMAT-Question-of-the-day\">RSS<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Math If , which of the following could be true?
