All of the following questions are relevant to the owners' decision about hiring new staff EXCEPT which one?

A) Do the owners want to stop participating in the hands-on production of their product?
B) How much will employing new staff members cost?
C) Will new employees put the same amount of care into making the soda as the owners do?
D) Will Lola's be introducing new flavors in the upcoming year?
E) Do customers buy the soda because they think it is made personally by the owners?

Answer: D
Explanation: D) Lola's Soft Drinks can stick with the same flavors or introduce new flavors no matter who produces the soda, so Choice D is not relevant. Choice A is a relevant question because if the owners no longer want to do the hands-on work of producing the soda, they should hire other people to do it. Choice B is relevant because employing a staff may have significant effects on revenues and profits. Choice C is relevant because having a staff create the soda rather than the company owners might affect the products' quality as well as customers' perception of the product. Choice E is an important question to ask because if customers do not care who actually produces the soda, the owners can hire staff without affecting sales.
