Given the above information in the Taylor-Russell Table, answer the following questions and show your work where applicable.

1. What is the hiring success gain for the new predictor when considering the more desirable selection ratio? (2 points)
2. What is the hiring success gain for the new predictor when considering the less desirable selection ratio? (2 points)

4. Considering all of the above, what is your recommendation to Jerry’s Pet Supplies about adopting the new selection method with the validity coefficient of 0.70? (1 point
