The calculated value of the Z statistic to test the potential buyer's belief at the 1% significant level is -2.57512627.
The calculated Z score is slightly greater than the critical value of -2.575, the potential buyer's view that weekly store revenues are less than $7,000 stands vindicated.
Since store revenues are assumed to be normally distributed and population standard deviation is given, we can use the Z-test. The relevant test statistic is the Z-score.
We use the following formula for calculating the Z score:
Z = (X - μ) / (σ /√n)
Substituting the relevant values we get,
Z = (6400 -7000) / (1042/√20)
Z = -600 / 232.9982833
Z = -2.57512627
Answer:
Factors to consider:
1. Specialisation role
2. Complexity of sales process
3.Tenure
4.Geographical coverage
5. Sales Representative leadership
6. Support network
7. Internal Bureaucracy
8. Value add of managers
Factors not to consider;
1. Market share

Explanation:
When considering a company's span of control, which simply means the number of junior staff a manager should manage, it is important to note factors relating to geographical coverage, a wide coverage can create difficulties in supervision to a manager. Consequently reducing the span of control.
Specialisation also help in ensuring the manager is an expert in the area he or she supervise. Experienced manager with good understanding of the tasks, good knowledge of the workers and good relationships with the workers, will be able to supervise more workers
The complexity of a sale process can affect a manager's supervision performance. if the sale process for example require an online payment to a final user who may not be physically available. Supervising such sales requires adequate training.
Other factors like; Tenure, Sales Representative leadership, Support network, Internal Bureaucracy, Value add of managers are paramount in determining span of control. However, market share, production process, distribution process and personal affiliation, race and religion should not affect the span of control.

Answer:
A Recession happened.
Explanation:
When the market sees a recession we see an increase in the unemployment rate due to cyclical unemployment whenever there in a business cycle even though the labor force was constant but in a recession companies face a lot of costs which become higher than their revenue so for example when there is a recession the cost of producing 1 more unit is actually higher than the revenue a firm gets from producing that 1 unit because marginal cost increases at a decreasing rate so they have to lay off people at a firm on that unit of production to maximize revenues.
