The following appeared in the editorial section of a local newspaper:
“The tragic crash of a medical helicopter last week points out a situation that needs to be addressed. The
medical-helicopter industry supposedly has more stringent guidelines for training pilots and maintaining
equipment than do most other airline industries, but these guidelines do not appear to be working: statistics
reveal that the rate of medical-helicopter accidents is much higher than the rate of accidents for nonmedical
helicopters or commercial airliners.”
Discuss how well reasoned … etc.

“According to a survey of 5,000 urban residents, the prevalence of stress headaches increases with educational
level, so that stress headaches occur most often among people with graduate-school degrees. It is well
established that, nationally, higher educational levels usually correspond with higher levels of income. Therefore,
in marketing our new pain remedy, Omnilixir, we should send free samples primarily to graduate students and to
people with graduate degrees, and we should concentrate on advertising in professional journals rather than in
general interest magazines.”



The following appeared in a memorandum from the publisher to the staff of The Clarion, a large metropolitan
newspaper:
“During the recent campaign for mayor, a clear majority of city readers who responded to our survey indicated a
desire for more news about city government. To increase circulation, and thus our profits, we should therefore
consistently devote a greater proportion of space in all editions of The Clarion to coverage of local news.”
Discuss how well reasoned … etc.


The following appeared in a memorandum from the human resources department of HomeStyle, a house
remodeling business:
“This year, despite HomeStyle’s move to new office space, we have seen a decline in both company morale and
productivity, and a corresponding increase in administrative costs. To rectify these problems, we should begin
using a newly developed software package for performance appraisal and feedback. Managers will save time by
simply choosing comments from a preexisting list; then the software will automatically generate feedback for
the employee. The human resources department at CounterBalance, the manufacturer of the countertops we
install, reports satisfaction with the package.”
Discuss how well reasoned … etc.

The following appeared as part of an article in a weekly newsmagazine:
“The country of Oleum can best solve the problem of its balance-of-trade deficit by further increasing the tax on
its major import, crude oil. After Oleum increased the tax on imported crude oil four months ago, consumption
of gasoline declined by 20 percent. Therefore, by imposing a second and significantly higher tax increase next
year, Oleum will dramatically decrease its balance of trade deficit.”
Discuss how well reasoned … etc.

The following appeared as part of a business plan by the Capital Idea investment firm:
“In recent years the worldwide demand for fish has grown, and improvements in fishing technology have made
larger catches, and thus increased supply, possible: for example, last year’s tuna catch was 9 percent greater
than the previous year’s. To capitalize on these trends, we should therefore invest in the new tartfish processing
plant on Tartfish Island, where increasing revenues from tourism indicate a strong local economy.”
Discuss how well reasoned … etc.


The following appeared in a speech by a stockholder of Consolidated Industries at the company’s annual
stockholders’ meeting:
“In the computer hardware division last year, profits fell significantly below projections, the product line
decreased from 20 to only 5 items, and expenditures for employee benefits increased by 15 percent.
Nevertheless, Consolidated’s board of directors has approved an annual salary of more than $1 million for
our company’s chief executive officer. The present board members should be replaced because they are
unconcerned about the increasing costs of employee benefits and salaries, in spite of the company’s
problems generating income.”
Discuss how well reasoned … etc.

The following appeared as part of an article in a trade magazine:
“During a recent trial period in which government inspections at selected meat-processing plants were more
frequent, the amount of bacteria in samples of processed chicken decreased by 50 percent on average from the
previous year’s level. If the government were to institute more frequent inspections, the incidence of stomach
and intestinal infections throughout the country could thus be cut in half. In the meantime, consumers of Excel
Meats should be safe from infection because Excel’s main processing plant has shown more improvement in
eliminating bacterial contamination than any other plant cited in the government report.”
Discuss how well reasoned … etc.
