Your company's promotion policy is to fill half $(50\%)$ of the potential positions with internal hires. You do this to keep your internal employees motivated by the opportunity to move to higher levels in the organization. However, you cannot promote people to Level $1$ positions because there is no lower position. Additionally, you cannot promote people out of Level $3,$ because there is no higher position to promote them into. Every employee you promote from one level to another creates an additional opening that needs to be filled, so be mindful of that in your calculations.
