Questions 151-153 refer to the following article.

Purchasers of certain models of cameras manufactured by JCR, Inc. are being alerted to a
potential battery issue. Consumer complaints indicate that the batteries of certain models are
unable to hold a charge after only being used a few times. According to JCR, the batteries are
designed to be recharged a minimum of fifty times before beginning to lose capacity.

The affected models are those in the J100 and J200 product lines. Customers who purchased
any of these models may exchange the camera’s original battery at any retailer carrying JCR
products or by mailing it back to JCR. Details on the exchange process can be found on the
company’s Web site. There is no cost to camera owners.

Since news of the problem surfaced, sales of JCR cameras have slumped. The company
blames the problem on a supplier. “Customer satisfaction is our first priority,” said President
Tom Jenkins. “We will do everything to remedy this unfortunate situation, including a
redesign of the parts, if needed.”
