    Answer: C. 73

    Explanation:

    It is stated that 1,500 less motor homes will be sold once Winnebagel Corp. introduces it's new Portable Camper.

    However it also states that 500 out of this 1,500 will be lost regardless of if the Portable Camper is introduced or not.

    So that means that the actual erosion effect on the sale of motor homes is,

    = 1,500 - 500

    = 1,000 mobile homes.

    Since each home is sold for $73,000 then the Erosion effect will be,

    = 73,000 * 1,000

    = $73,000,000

    $73 million is the erosion effect on the sale of motor homes by introducing the new portable camper so Option C is correct.
