Explanation:  C) The new battery can add value if and only if it increases sales for the phone, making "value to the phone if more customers buy the phone" the correct response. Increasing the cost is negative only if it decreases sales, so the two choices indicating no value are incorrect responses. The cost of the phone may not need to be cut if customers judge that the extra battery life is worth the higher price.
