Using the following information, perform a breakdown and workload computation to predict how many salespersons XYZ Inc. will need to service their customers. Forecasted sales for next year are $110 million and an average salesperson sells $9 million annually. Also, the XYZ sales manager has categorized existing accounts into 41 “A,” 105 “B,” and 225 “C” customers. “A” accounts are visited weekly, “B” accounts monthly, and “C” accounts every other month. Salespersons are required to make four calls per day and be in the field four days per week. Because of vacation, training, and holidays, each salesperson works 48 weeks a year. In addition to calling upon existing accounts, salespersons are assigned a quota of calling upon 10 percent new accounts and devoting 5 percent of their time to information gathering duties.
