Answer BOTH questions.

1. (a) An established company has decided to add a new product to its line. It will buy the product
from a manufacturing outlet, package it and sell it to a number of distributors that have
been selected on a geographical basis. Market research has already indicated the volume
expected and the size of sales force required. The activities shown in the following table
