Probability assigned:|

x 30 60 120 180

P(x) .10 .40 .40 .10

Answer:

Jane

Price of Groupon for a revenue of $300 is:

$3

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Expected Sales volume:

Number of Tubes  x   30     60      120     180

Probability P(x)           .10     .40      .40      .10

Expected values          3      24       48       18

Total = 93 tubes

Groupon price = $300/93 = $3.23

b) Jane's price for each Groupon will be the rent revenue per day divided by the expected number of tubes to rent daily.  The expected number of tubes is derived by multiplying each expected number of tubes by its probability and then summing up the results.

icang [17]

Answer:

A. she assumes that the employees are lazy and just throw in some random ideas when they have discussion meetings about their new product/service or an upgrade of the organisation's product/service. therefore since she assumes that they don't actually think to help give ideas, she decides that it is best to scold them when they aren't trying their best.

B. she assumes that her employees are responsible enough to find a way to keep themselves entertained while finishing their tasks.

C. she dosent trust her employees yet to let them take control without her being needed since she may assume that they aren't experienced enough or responsible enough to take huge responsibility yet.

D. she assumes that since they want to leave early all the time, they may not like their job very much and would want to get out of the company as soon as possible since there would be a chance that they would be stopped to help with extra work.
