Megan Kris, the Vice-President for Human Resources in Learning, Inc. was concerned
about a recent memo she had recently received from the CEO’s office regarding the
possibility of outsourcing the payroll function to Salary Experts, a growing provider of a
variety of human resource services. She was shocked that the CEO’s office had discussed
this matter with the Board of Directors, but failed to consult her.
Megan was preparing for a meeting with the CEO. In reading the memo and its
attachments, Megan observed the following comparison of costs in a report prepared by
the controller’s office:
