,Q1 ANALYZE AND APPLY STRATEGIC HRM THEORIES TO COMPLEX ORGANIZATIONAL
SCENARIOS
A multinational corporation is deciding between a geocentric and polycentric
staffing approach for its new subsidiary in a high-uncertainty emerging market.
Which factor most strongly favors the geocentric approach?
A. Need for local responsiveness and cultural adaptation
B. Desire to reduce compensation costs and expatriate failure rates
C. Requirement for global integration and transfer of core competencies CORRECT
D. Pressure to comply with local labor laws and hiring quotas
RATIONALE: Geocentric staffing emphasizes global integration and transfer of core
competencies across borders, making it suitable when coordination and knowledge sharing are
critical. Polycentric approaches favor local responsiveness and cost reduction, while legal
compliance is more associated with regiocentric or local staffing.
Q2 ANALYZE AND APPLY STRATEGIC HRM THEORIES TO COMPLEX ORGANIZATIONAL
SCENARIOS
Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), which scenario most likely triggers a
violation regarding overtime pay?
A. A salaried employee earning $684 per week is classified as exempt and works 50 hours.
B. An hourly employee receives compensatory time off instead of overtime pay. CORRECT
C. A commissioned salesperson outside the office is paid a salary plus commission.
D. A computer professional earning $27.63 per hour is paid overtime after 40 hours.
RATIONALE: FLSA requires overtime pay at 1.5 times the regular rate for non-exempt
employees; compensatory time off in lieu of overtime is generally not allowed in the private
sector. Exempt status under A requires salary basis and duties test, which may be valid if duties
qualify. C and D are permissible under specific exemptions.

, Q3 ANALYZE AND APPLY STRATEGIC HRM THEORIES TO COMPLEX ORGANIZATIONAL
SCENARIOS
In designing a pay-for-performance system, which combination of metrics best
aligns with a balanced scorecard approach to avoid dysfunctional behavior?
A. Financial metrics only, such as revenue growth and profit margin
B. Customer satisfaction and employee turnover
C. Financial, customer, internal process, and learning/growth metrics CORRECT
D. Individual productivity and sales volume
RATIONALE: The balanced scorecard integrates financial, customer, internal process, and
learning/growth perspectives to prevent myopic focus on one dimension. Options A, B, and D are
partial and can lead to gaming or neglect of other critical areas.
Q4 ANALYZE AND APPLY STRATEGIC HRM THEORIES TO COMPLEX ORGANIZATIONAL
SCENARIOS
Which HR analytics technique is most appropriate for identifying the causal
impact of a training program on employee performance while controlling for
selection bias?
A. Multiple regression analysis with performance as the dependent variable
B. Propensity score matching combined with difference-in-differences CORRECT
C. Correlational analysis of training hours and performance ratings
D. Descriptive statistics on training completion rates
RATIONALE: Propensity score matching with difference-in-differences helps control for selection
bias and unobserved heterogeneity, providing a stronger causal inference. Regression and
correlation cannot fully address selection bias, and descriptive statistics are not inferential.
