Question

Suppose the narrator’s company instituted a policy in which employees have to tell HR any time they receive a corporate gift worth more than $30. Instead of Red Sox tickets, Firm A gives the narrator a selection of little gifts over the course of several months, like notepads, pens, and coffee mugs.

It is likely that the small gifts would influence the narrator _______
A. less than the Red Sox tickets
B. more than the Red Sox tickets
C. more than the Red Sox tickets
D. the same as the Red Sox tickets

Answer 1

B) more than the Red Sox tickets

C) more than the Red Sox tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first part of the question the narrator receives free tickets to Red Sox games and decides to take his dad to them. The tickets were given to him by an audit company that wants to extend their current contract and the narrator has an important role in making that decision. The narrator himself is not a huge fan of the Red Sox, only his father is. He valued the tickets because he could take his father to the game, but nothing else.

Instead if he receives a selection of small gifts that he might actually like and use, that would influence him more than tickets that his father liked.

Answer 2

C. more than the Red Sox tickets

Explanation

Based on the scenario being describe it can be said that It is likely that the small gifts would influence the narrator more than the Red Sox tickets. This mainly because the little gifts will sum up over time since they have been receiving them for about 7 months, instead of Red Sox tickets which would be the same repeated event every time.
