23) Sarah is trying to decide which one of two job offers she will accept. Several items are presented below: Job Offer A Job Offer B (1) Base salary $ 50,000 $ 50,000 (2) Overtime compensation Comp. time Hourly rate (3) Moving allowance $ 3,000 $ 3,000 (4) Signing bonus $ 2,000 $ 0 (5) Job search costs incurred $ 300 $ 500 Select the items that are irrelevant to Sarah's decision. A. (1), (3), (5) B. (2), (4) C. (1), (3) D. (2), (3), (4)

A. (1), (3), (5)

Explanation:

When deciding on whether the items presented in the Job Offer are relevant or irrelevant, Sarah would need to evaluate and compare between the both Offers.

Base Salary

The base salary offered in both the Job Offers are same. Therefore, this item is irrelevant. Since they both are same it won't matter whichever she selects.

Overtime Compensation

This is different in both the Job Offers. Comp. Time is basically where employers give their employees paid time off in lieu of the overtime they have worked. While in the case of hourly rate, the employees receive additional payment for overtime work. Sarah would have to choose which option is more preferred for her whether extra time or additional payment. This item is therefore relevant.

Moving Allowance

This allowance is equal in each job offers. So, she would receive it in any offer she selects. This item is also irrelevant when making decision on the Job Offer.

Signing Bonus

The signing bonus has been offered in only one of the Job Offers for $2,000. Sarah would need to decide if she would need this bonus or could she forgo the same. This item is relevant.

Job Search Cost

This is basically sunk cost which is not recovered. Therefore, it is irrelevant when making the decision for the Job Offer.

Hence, the base salary, moving allowance and job search cost are irrelevant for Sarah when making decision for the Job offer.
