Max has a batting average of .400 and an average order value of $3,000, making 5 calls a day for 275 days. What is his total sales volume for the year?

To calculate Max's total sales volume for the year, we first need to understand his batting average and how it relates to his sales performance.

Max's batting average of .400 indicates that he successfully closes 40% of his sales calls. When he makes 5 calls a day and works for 275 days, we can determine the total number of calls he makes in a year:

5 calls/day × 275 days = 1,375 calls.

With a batting average of .400, the number of successful sales Max closes is:

1,375 calls × 0.400 = 550 successful sales.

Now, given that the average order value is $3,000, we can calculate the total sales volume by multiplying the number of successful sales by the average order value:

550 successful sales × $3,000/ sale = $1,650,000.

This calculation leads us to the total sales volume of $1,650,000 for the year, reflecting Max's effective sales performance based on his activity and average order value. Thus, the correct answer is indeed $1,650,000.
