E-mail from division director to donations coordinator
August 10, 9:37 a.m.
Yesterday I spoke with the computer training lab administrator to update him on the status of donations for the school district’s computer donations drive. He extended the donations deadline for another week, until next Tuesday. Are we on track to receive enough donations from students’ families to meet our goal of computers for the new training lab? Do we need to extend our request to local businesses too?

2. Suppose that the donations coordinator requests computer donations from 400 local businesses. If all the information in the three e-mails is accurate, the number of attendees that will be invited to participate in the thank-you event is closest to:
| 135 | |

| 200 | |
| 240 | |
| 300 |
The division director is willing to determine methods for increasing the funds available for the thank-you event if the drive’s donation goals are exceeded.: No
The division director and the donations coordinator disagree regarding the amount to be budgeted per person for attendees at the thank-you event.: No

I agree with all the responses above. As for the second question:
The donations drive has received 40 computers so far and each computer donation has 2 invitations attached to it so there are 40 x 2 = 80 attendees so far.
The donations co-ordinator has sent out donation requests to 400 local businesses. The donations coordinator mentioned that they normally have a 20% 'positive response rate' therefore 0.2 x 400= 80 computer donations from local businesses. 80 x 2 invitations= 160 people
Therefore, 80 + 160=240. (D)
