QUESTION

Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the CEO’s argument for undertaking operations in Sri Lanka?

A) The cost of living is much lower in Sri Lanka than in the United States.
B) Few other similar companies do business in Sri Lanka.
C) Unemployment is currently very low in Sri Lanka.
D) Labor unions represent most workers in Sri Lanka.
E) Unemployment is currently high in the United States.

ANSWER

Answer: A
Explanation: A) If this is the case, it strengthens the case that Torgo Software would save money by conducting operations in Sri Lanka. Choice B: There may be a reason why few other companies do business in Sri Lanka, so this tends to weaken the CEO’s case. Choice C: This suggests that it may be difficult to find sufficient available labor in Sri Lanka. Choices D and E are not directly relevant to the CEO’s argument.
