Turner Industries started a new project three months ago. Sales arising from this project are significantly less than anticipated. Given this, which one of the following is management most apt to implement?

1. Option to wait

2. Soft rationing

3. Option to delay

4. Option to expand

5. Option to abandon

4) Option to expand

Explanation:

Since the project is at the introduction stage, it is normal that sales are low and it will take some time before they start to rise. But at this stage, the company really needs to invest a lot on advertisement and other promotional activities in order to make their product or service more appealing to customers. The company needs to double down on its bet and expand its new project.

Answer: Option to abandon

Explanation:

If the Turner industries started a new project for a period of about three months and the sales are less than expected, the company management would most likely want to abandon the project. This is as result of the new branch not being able to meet up with the target that was expected from the management at the headquarters.
