Expected Value:

Stock Market Rising Market Stable Market Falling Expected Value

Probability 60% 30% 10%

SUA $68,082*60% $47,373*30% $36,362*10% = $58,697

YSP $64,850*60% $49,320*30% $44,865*10% = 58,163

HTC $57,198*60% $52,949*30% $50,605*10% = 55,264

YHA $59,766*60% $59,766*30% $59,766*10% = 59,766

SUA = $40,849.20 + $14,211.90 + $3,636.20 = $58,697.30

YSP = $38,880 + $14,796 + $4,486.50 = $58,162.50

HTC = $34,318.80 + $15,884.70 + $5,060.50 = $55,264

YHA = $35,859.60 + $17,929.80 + $5,976.60 = $59,766

Answer:

Expectancy theory

Explanation:

Expectancy theory states that when an individual is faced with different choices they will be motivated in a certain way in choosing a particular option based on what they expect to be the result of the choice.

So behaviour is affected by perceived result or consequence of a particular choice.

In the given scenario Joyce works hard and puts in many extra hours, and getting a promotion is most important to Joyce.

So because of her expectations that manager must recognise that:

(1) she is putting in hard work and long hours to obtain a promotion,

(2) what motivates Joyce will change over time (if she does not get the promotion), and

(3) he must clearly show Joyce how to attain the desirable reward.
