The pie chart illustrates the projected market shares of the two companies, while the bar graph forecasts jeans sales in Turkey for the upcoming year. Overall, it is anticipated that the final quarter of this year will witness an uptick in jeans sales, with Jack & Jones poised to lead in market share.

Initial sales of Jack & Jones jeans in Turkey are expected to reach nearly 450 thousand pairs, approximately three times higher than Mango's. However, Jack & Jones's sales are forecasted to decline to 300 thousand pairs by the end of the first quarter, compared to just over 150 thousand for Mango. In July and August, it is estimated that demand for Mango jeans will surpass that of Jack & Jones. Nevertheless, Jack & Jones is projected to experience a surge in jeans sales during the last three months of the year, selling 900,000 pairs in December, twice the number sold in January. Conversely, except for a 600 thousand increase in December, Mango's jeans sales in the last quarter are expected to remain nearly unchanged.

Turning to the pie chart, it is expected that Jack & Jones alone will capture a third of the market share, with Mango holding a figure 10% lower. The remaining half will be divided among other jeans manufacturers.

Some people contend that government authorities should have complete control over scientific research. While it is true that governments must play a crucial role in technological advancement, I propose that collaboration between public and private finances could better serve the goal. This idea would be carefully considered throughout the course of this article.

There are a multitude of arguments in support of government regulation of scientific research. First off, due to its unique characteristic, scientific research necessitates a lot of tasks, resources, and time. It is considered that only the government could invest continually in these initiatives while keeping the welfare of the entire population in mind and would not forgo the long-term mission and vision in favour of a short-term financial benefit. Additionally, some scientific endeavours have the potential to undermine society’s values if allowed unchecked through social or ethical conflicts. For instance, genetic editing has sparked a significant amount of controversy and is currently governed by law. Ultimately, since a portion of the money used for research is obtained through taxation, individuals prefer that the use of their tax dollars be subject to oversight by the competent authorities.

However, as long as the government is in charge of these scientific initiatives, I reckon private sector involvement would undoubtedly advance the overall objective. The fundamental reason is that since private funds are motivated by profit, they are more focused on the commercialization of scientific achievements than government officials who lack expertise in either the scientific or business fields. With genuine economic rewards achieved by the research, interested parties may be more encouraged to conduct additional research. Government employees can also be ineffective and shorthanded at times. Without such cooperation, they might quickly become overburdened by the volume of work and correspondence.

In conclusion, I propose that, as long as they can be rigorously monitored by authorities, scientific research could be conducted and commercialised more effectively with the cooperation of the government and private firms.
