    The answer is c) Physical-asset specificity

    Explanation:

    The asset specificity is defined as the degree in the investments made to support a need to have a higher value than they would have if they are redistributed for any other purpose. They are non-redistributable physical and human investments that are specialized and exclusive for a task. In the example of the exercise, employee training is a specific investment of assets, since it is more likely that your investment will have the same profitability in the management of software and hardware provided by ADP.
