Product or Product Class Number of Customers Estimated Size of Total Market Apple iPad Mini 15,000,000 920,000,000 Apple iPod 350,000,000 720,000,000 Amazon Kindle 4,000,000 32,000,000 SUV 112,000,000 160,000,000 VCR 94,500,00 100,000,000

Explanation / Answer

the corresponding diffusion percentage for each product is given above in table

method of calculation:

Apple iPad Mini :

customers = 15000000

estimated size of market = 920000000

diffusion % = customers/size of market = 15000000/920000000 = 0.016 = 1.6%

similarly we calculate all the other diffusion %.

VCR no. of customers has an error it should be 94,500,000
