situations for Happy Tours, a company owned by Jason Haslett that sells motor coach tours to schools and other groups. Happy Tours owns a fleet of 10 motor coaches and employs 12 drivers, 1 maintenance technician, 3 sales representatives, and an office manager. Happy Tours pays for ali fuel and maintenance on the coaches. Drivers are paid 50.50 per mile while in transit, plus $15 per hour while idle (time spent ware both full-time salaried employees. The sales representatives work on straight commission. 1. When the office manager receives calls from potential customers, she is instructed to handle the contracts herself. Recently, however, the number of contracts written up by the office manager has declined. At the same time, one of the sales representatives has experienced a significant increase in contracts. The other two representatives believe that the office manager has been colluding with the third representative to send him the prospective customers. 2. One of the motor coach drivers seems to be reaching his destinations more quickly than any of the other drivers and is reporting longer idle time. 3. Fuel costs have increased significantly in recent months. Driving the motor coaches at 60 miles per hour oh the highway consumes significantly less fuel than driving them at 65 miles per hour. 4. Regular preventive maintenance of the motor coaches has been proven to improve fuel efficiency and reduce overall operating costs by averting costly repairs. During busy months, however, it is difficult for the maintenance technician' to complete all of the maintenance tasks within his 40 -hour workweek. 5. Jason Haslett has read about stretch targets, and he believes that a change in the compensation structure of the sales representatives may improve sales. Rather than a straight commission af 10% of sales, he is considering a system where each representative is given a monthly goal of 50 contracts. If the goal is met, the representative is paid a 12% commission. If the goal is not met, the commission falls to 8%. Currently, each sales representative averages 45 contracts per month.

What can be done to solve the prablem or improve the situation? For situation 5, describe the potential benefits and costs of establishing stretch targets
