(A) Using the trucks frequently might be good, it doesn't necessarily mean you need more of them.
(B) Could be, but you still have the risk of losses from taking the trucks away from other hubs.
(C) May or may not be, but it doesn't help nor harm the management's argument.
(D) This one assures you don't make losses for moving trucks away, so you can only win. CORRECT ANSWER
(E) It's not relevant if there's a central system, it could work without it.

NOTES:
each neighborhood delivery hub has same number of trucks- regardless of volume
Managment will now let hubs trade trucks assignments freely
Argue it will move them to more intensive area and reduce average delivery time (GOAL)
ASK:
To evaluate plan if it is likely to achieve goal, what would be most helpful to know.
SOLVE:
A) Whether neighborhood hubs facing tighter shipping deadlines currently use their trucks more frequently than other neighborhoods.
- Yes. This could be a good data point to know if there is a need for what we have. But this will not effect the intended result.
B) Whether neighborhood hubs currently using trucks more intensively achieve shorter delivery times due to having more trucks
- NO. They have same number of trucks at all hubs
C) Whether using the company’s own trucks reduces delivery time more effectively than outsourcing to third-party carriers
- NO This is irrelevant.
D) Whether certain neighborhood hubs currently have idle trucks at any point during the day
- YES This is a huge facto. If there are no idle trucks then they would never trade
E) Whether neighborhood hubs will be required to record truck-trading activity in a central scheduling system
- No this is irrelevant as it has no effect on achieving intended result.
It could be A or D. But D is more of an effect on if it will achieve the intended results.

To evaluate whether the company’s plan is likely to achieve its intended result,
on pre thinking we can clearly see that the plan will be successful if and only if the neighbourhood hubs will be able to achieve the shorter delivery time with extra trucks.
lets evaluate the options:
A: incorrect. we don't want want to discuss about frequency but the number of trucks and also there is extra thing related to deadlines
B: correct. directly related to the question. if this option is negated then the intended result will not be achieved.
C: not directly linked to the company's plan
D: it is linked to the plan but not as important as option B
E: irrelevant
