Terry Hansen

Part Five: Your assignment.
 
Terry decided to write a one-page memo to his boss. In the memo, he would:
(a) explain the situation with the customer's request for a refund;
(b) present his counterproposal, showing the numbers he had worked out; and
(c) explain why he thought his proposal was a good one.
 
Terry knew his boss wasn't much for numbers, so he decided to make two graphs to accompany his memo.
 
The first graph would be a bar chart. It would compare (in absolute dollar terms) the $1,500 refund with the total price of the customer's original order and then would compare the $3,000 refund with the total price of the full order (the customer's original order plus the additional 15 containers Terry wanted the customer to purchase).
 
The second graph would be a line chart. It would show the refund in dollars per ton, comparing the $1,500 refund for the first order and the $3,000 refund for the new total order of 15 cargo containers worth of hay.
