Performance Edge (PE) is a consulting firm that helps companies develop employee recognition programs. It maintains a large inventory of prizes companies can give to deserving employees. Because of growth in demand for its services, PE is considering selling its existing warehouse used for storing the prize inventory and leasing a new, larger warehouse facility. The existing warehouse has a large parking lot that was newly paved last year and PE rents about 30% of the parking spots to occupants of adjacent properties. The new warehouse is expected to be much more energy efficient and is larger than PE currently requires to store inventory. As a result, if they make the move management plans to sublet about 15% of the space for the next three years. The new warehouse is also expected to require Jess maintenance but because of the additional s ize two new warehouse employees will be hired.
