Which of the following questions is NOT relevant to Parallel Beauty Salon's decision to expand its hours and include a mini-snack bar and a childcare service?
A) Does the salon currently have enough space to house a childcare area and a mini-snack bar?
B) Are the salon's hair stylists willing to work additional hours during the week?
C) Does the local government impose particular taxes on businesses that provide childcare?
D) Would the presence of children in the hair salon be disturbing to clients without children?
E) Does the salon have plans to expand its beauty product line as well as its hair salon services?
Answer: E
Explanation: E) All the questions are relevant except whether the salon plans to expand its beauty product line. Its plans regarding its beauty product line could have implications for the salon's financial growth in the future, but it does not help Parallel Beauty to decide whether or not to expand its hours and include a mini-bar and a childcare service for its customers. Choice A is important because it tells us whether or not offering these additional services is a viable option. Choice B is relevant because opening earlier during the week will work only if stylists are available to staff the salon during those times. Choice C matters because paying additional taxes reduces the potential profits gained through adding childcare services. Choice D is relevant because if having children in the salon causes the salon to lose some of its original customers, the business may not grow financially.
