Question

15. In a company, the manager gives a sales target of 16,000 to each of the 10 salesmen working under
(a) Four salesmen achieved the target but each one of other six salesmen falls short of the target by
R2000. By how much does the group of 10 salesmen fall short of the total sales target?
(b) If the manager reduces the workforce to eight salesmen, what should be the new sales target for
each salesman to maintain the total sales target?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Total target is 16,000

1 sales men 16,000 is the target

4 achieved the target so 64,000 rs

6 fell short by 2000 rs , 14,000 is target

so 84,000 is achieved

total 64,000+84,000=1,48,000

short fall 16,000-1,48,000=12,000

if work force it reduced by 2 ie 8 target per men will be 1,60,000/8=20,000

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

total target is 160000

1 sales men 16000 is the target

4 achieved the target so 64000 rs

6 fell short by 2000 rs , 14000 is target so 84000 is achieved

total 64000+84000=148000

short fall 160000-148000=12000

if work force is reduced by 2 ie 8 men

target per men will be 160000/8=20000
