Product Details

The general manager of the Oakland A's professional baseball team must evaluate two salary-and-bonus plans proposed by the A's star pitcher (see UVA-QA-0282). The plans call for the pitcher to receive a bonus if the next season's home attendance exceeds a specified amount. A student spreadsheet containing historical data on team performance (number of games won), attendance, and the general manager's preseason forecasted number of wins is available.
