Abstract

Kandy Chan, the director of operations at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre is trying to decide whether or not to purchase 2000 new chairs. As he looks ahead, Chan anticipates an occasional shortage of chairs during major events. He has a choice between purchasing the needed chairs outright, or signing an agreement to rent the chairs for the coming peak season with an option to rent them as well during the following season. There is a Simplified Chinese version available ''9A99EC23''.
