Abstract Recognizing that not all employees possess knowledge and skills that are of equal strategic importance, we draw on the resource-based view of the firm, human capital theory, and transaction cost economics to develop a human resource architecture of four different employment modes: internal development, acquisition, contracting, and alliance. We use this architecture to derive research questions for studying the relationships among employment modes, employment relationships, human resource configurations, and criteria for competitive advantage.

question A fast-food restaurant chain whose menu features hamburgers and chicken sandwiches is about to add a fish sandwich to its menu. There was considerable debate among the executives about the likely demand and what the appropriate price should be. A recently hired economics graduate observed that the demand curve would reveal a great deal about the relationship between price and demand. She convinced the executives to conduct an experiment. A random sample of 20 restaurants was drawn. The restaurants were almost identical in terms of sales and in the demographics of the surrounding area. At each restaurant, the fish sandwich was sold at a different price. The number of sandwiches sold over a 7-day period and the price were recorded. A first-order model and a second-order model were proposed.. Write the equation for each model. Verified answer
