Write your feasibility/recommendation report explaining whom you would hire.

Your company, Telecommunications R Us (TRU), has experienced a 45 percent increase in business, a 37 percent increase in warehoused stock, and a 23 percent increase in employees. You need more room. Your executive officer, Polina Gertsberg, has asked you to research existing options. To do so, you know you must consider these criteria:

Ample space for further expansion. Gertsberg says TRU could experience 150 percent growth. You need to consider room for parking, warehouse space, additional offices, and a cafeteriaapproximately 20,000 square feet total.

Cost. Twenty million dollars should be the top figure, with a preferred payback of five years at 10 percent.

Location. Most of your employees and customers live within 15 miles of your current location. This has worked well for deliveries and employee satisfaction. A new location within this 15-mile radius is preferred.

Aesthetics. A beautiful site could improve employee morale and increase productivity.

Site 1 (11717 Grandview). This four-story site, located 12 miles from your current site, offers three floors of finished space equaling 18,000 square feet. The fourth floor is an unfinished shell equaling an additional 3,000 square feet. As is, the building will sell for $19 million. If the current owner finishes the fourth floor, the addition would cost $4 million more. For the building as is, the owner asks for payment in five years at 12 percent interest. If the fourth floor is finished by the owner, payment is requested in seven years at 10 percent. The building has ample parking space but no cafeteria, although a building next door has available food services. Site 1 is nestled in a beautifully wooded area with hiking trails and picnic facilities.

Site 2 (808 W. Blue Valley). This one-story building offers 21,000 square feet that includes 100 existing offices, a warehouse capable of holding 80 storage bins that measure 20 feet tall 60 yards long 8 feet wide, and a full-service cafeteria. Because the complex is one story, it takes up 90 percent of the lot, leaving only 10 percent for parking. Additional parking is located across an eight-lane highway that can be crossed via a footbridge. The building, located 18 miles from your current site, has an asking price of $22 million at 3.75 percent interest for five years. Site 2 has a cornfield to its east, the highway to its west, a small lake to its north where flocks of geese nest, and a strip mall to its south.

Site 3 (1202 Red Bridge Avenue). This site is 27 miles from your current location. It has three stories offering 23,000 square feet, a large warehouse with four-bay loading dock, and a cafeteria with ample seating and vending machines for food and drink. Because this site is located near a heavily industrialized area, the asking price is $15 million at 3.5 percent interest for five years.
