Honda is considering bringing its new Honda NBox it makes for the Japanese market to the United States. Its closest competitor would be Daimler’s Smart car, which made a profit of $108.3 million on sales of $10.7 billion in the United States last year. Smart cars sell for around $13,000 but seat only two people. In comparison, Honda’s NBox holds four people and would be priced at $16,000, making it an alternative for small-car-minded families. The unit variable cost for each NBox is $14,000 and Honda has fixed costs totaling $20 million for this car. A) What is the profit margin for the Smart car?
B) How many NBox cars must Honda sell to break even?
C) How many NBox cars must Honda sell to realize a profit margin similar to that of the Smart car?

the correct answer would be b, when, queen, calder hall and london.

explanation:

we always capitalize words when a paragraph or sentence is starting, when an important name is used, when a place is being written, or simply when a noun is used, etc. so in this sentence, sentence is starting from 'when', so it will be written in capital letters. secondly, queen is considered to be an important person, so it will also be written in capital letter. next, the name of the town is mentioned, i-e calder hall, which will also be written in capital letters. in the last,   city name is being used, 'london', which will also be written in capital letters. so option b is the most appropriate one.
