Explanation and answer:
If if the possible outcomes are xi, and the corresponding probability is pi, where i is one of the N events, then the expectation [E] is given by
[E] = sum (xi*pi)
In the given case, n= frequency of the event, N=50=total number of events
i n xi pi n*xi*pi
1 40 0 40/50 40*0*40/50 = 0
2 8 20 8/50 8*20/50 = 3.20
3 1 100 1/50 1*100/50 = 2.00
4 1 500 1/50 1*500/40= 10.00
Total (expected gross winning) = 15.20
Person has already paid $10,
so the expected net winning = 15.20 - 10 = 5.20
b) the footing of the debits exceeds the footing of the credits.

Available options:
A. determine the sequence in which customers will be called on.
B. use existing transportation facilities.
C. minimize non-selling time.
D. determine duration of sales calls.
E. provide salespeople with an opportunity to plan their own routes and schedules
Answer:
Option C. Minimizing non-selling time.
Explanation:
The reason is that sales reps must lower their non selling time as this makes them inefficient for the company and would also increase their loss of time and commission. So every sales representative acknowledges his primary goal to decrease the non selling time which means he is trying to make sale.
