<u>benefit</u> in terms of monetary assistance for relocating as there will be huge cost incurred by Aiden in relocation, as this is also important to relocate as the distance is too much that daily travelling is not possible, and for him Oregon is a new city and finding an accommodation is itself challenging therefore, when company at-least reimburses such cost of relocation it turns easy and removes a burden for relocation.

Answer:
1) B) I'll be sharing some special sales tips with you tomorrow that will make your job easier.

Explanation:
1) The <em>E->P expectancy</em> is related to the concept of investing effort into something that you know will lead to the desired performance. It is the part of the expectancy theory that is not related to rewards.
In this example. the goal (task) is to increase sales. The E->P expectancy is the probability that Ethan's efforts will result in the desired performance (increased sales). By giving sales tips to Ethan, he will get more self-esteem and know-how and believe that his effort will in fact result in the desired outcome.
Although this is an overlooked part of the expectancy theory sometimes, it is crucial. Despite the appeal of a particular reward, an employee may not get increased motivation if he/she thinks that the task itself cannot be completed.
2) The <em>P->O expectancy</em> is related to rewards, and it states that employees will get motivated if the desired performance will result in a reward. In this case, Emma's putting the goal (10% increased sales) in direct relation with a reward.
3) Since the Motivation Report states that Ethan is motivated by time off, two days off with pay is the most appealing reward for him. The money bonus is more appropriate for Jon, while a choice of work assignments is better for Blair.
First, we add up all the benefits that Gerome Houser gets from his job. That is,
$1,755 + $3,898 + $2,898 +$2,098 +$1,404 = $12,053
Then, we divide this amount by his annual salary and multiply the quotient by 100% to get the answer.

Therefore, Gerome Houser's rate of benefits is approximately 26.4%.
