Using the direct strategy is occasionally more effective in certain situations where you must deliver bad news. Which of the following situation WOULD BE appropriate for this direct strategy? 00 When bad news is personally upsetting, it is always appropriate to use the direct strategy. Use the direct strategy if the bad news could threaten personal relationships. Deliver critical messages that might create a hostile reaction, such as changes in service, legal announcements, or new policy requirements, using the direct strategy. When some organizational cultures, and even some people, expect that all internal messages and announcements, even bad news, to be presented in a straightforward way, starting with the bad news first. If the bad news is something significant that will personally affect the receiver, then the direct strategy makes sense.

4.6. A person purchases a dozen eggs and must take them home. Although making trips home is costless, there is a 50 percent chance that all of the eggs carried on one trip will be broken during the trip. This person con- siders two strategies: Strategy 1: Take the dozen eggs in one trip. Strategy 2: Make two trips, taking six eggs in each trip. a. List the possible outcomes of each strategy and the probabilities of these outcomes. Show that, on aver- age, six eggs make it home under either strategy. b. Develop a graph to show the utility obtainable under each strategy. c. Could utility be improved further by taking more than two trips? How would the desirability of this possibility be affected if additional trips were costly?

One method of solving this problem is through signaling. Signaling is a strategy one uses when they have information. The goal is to use a signal to convince the buyer that the good or service that is being sold is quality and will meet the buyer's wants. Offer an example of a company that uses a signal to help sell its product. What is the signal? What information is the signal trying to convey? Do you think the signal is effective? Why or why not? Does this signal improve market efficiency? Why or why not?
If it is impossible to acquire sufficient information to make an informed decision, what can be the least risky option to take? Using gut feelings Not doing anything Do something because something is always better than nothing. Let someone else make the decision.

1. Mel is thinking of going on a cruise. Mel values a cruise in nice weather at $2,000 and values a cruise in bad weather at $50. The probability of nice weather is 60 percent and the probability of bad weather is 40 percent. Trip insurance is sometimes available. If purchased, it allows travelers to delay the cruise until the weather is nice. Suppose that the price of the cruise is $1,200. If Mel is risk-neutral, then Mel should: not buy trip insurance. only buy trip insurance if it costs less than $780. only buy trip insurance if it costs less than $20. only buy trip insurance if it costs less than $50. 2. Several web sites, like Pricewatch.com, allow consumers to input the name of a product, and the site then returns a list of suppliers with their respective prices for the product. This: increases the benefit of search.. increases the free-rider problem. reduces the benefit of search. reduces the cost of search.
