Toys for Pops Is a Small Business That Focuses on Indoor

question 186

Short Answer

Toys for Pops is a small business that focuses on indoor and outdoor games intended for an adult male clientele. It stocks a range of fantasy action figures and models, low-impact athletic accessories such as Frisbees and croquet sets, and a wide range of video games. The business has grown to the point that a larger location is needed. Recently, a location has come up for rent at a nearby strip mall at a favorable rate. The facility would provide the business with much needed shelf space and more room for employees behind the counter. However, the strip mall is in an area that has also seen a rapid increase in petty crime. The CEO feels that the advantages of the new location support the decision to relocate.
Which of the following, if true, would weaken the CEO's position?
The iffy reputation of the area in which the strip mall is located would make the business's current employees uneasy about their safety at work, which would lead to increased turnover in staff.
The lower cost of living in the new neighborhood would make it easier to hire employees willing to accept lower salaries.
Video games sales, after several years of increases, have reached a plateau and are unlikely to show further growth in the next few years.
The strip mall has no other current vacancies.
The current staff has been stable for several years and is well versed in details of video games and other specialty items.
