Part A: Fully describe three (3) measures for assessing the effectiveness of a sales force as a whole. Explain why they are important, what they determine, and how sales managers apply these criteria to sales force performance evaluations.
Part B: You are a sales manager in the electronics industry. Your firm had a salesperson in the far western U.S. who everyone thought was a high performer. Every year he sent in his forecast, which was slightly higher than the year before, and every year he achieved that sales goal and received a nice evaluation and raise. Finally the salesperson retired and a replacement was reassigned. In the first year, he increased sales by 50 percent and in the second year he doubled the previous salesperson's output. Based on this anecdote:
1. List and describe five (5) pipeline analysis evaluation criteria that would have allowed you, the sales manager, to more accurately assess the salesperson's performance.
2. What would these evaluation criteria tell you about the previous and current sales reps?

Calculate the change in energy when 1 mol of 232pu nuclei
: Use the masses given in the following table to calculate the change in energy when 1 mol of 232Pu nuclei and 1 mol of 231Pa nuclei are each formed from their respective number of protons and neutrons.

Calculate the age of the rock
: Assuming that no lead was originally present, that all the 206Pb formed over the years has remained in the rock, and that the number of nuclides in intermediate stages of decay between 238U and 206Pb is negligible, calculate the age of the rock. (..
