10. The following appeared in a memorandum from the vice president of Gigantis, a development company that builds and leases retail store facilities: Nationwide over the past five years, sales have increased significantly at outlet stores that deal exclusively in reduced-price merchandise. Therefore, we should publicize the new mall that we are building at Pleasantville as a central location for outlet shopping and rent storage space only to outlet companies. By taking advantage of the success of outlet stores, this plan should help ensure full occupancy of the mall and enable us to recover quickly the costs of building the mall.

In conclusion, as the author fails to address the above mentioned items . The argument is not sound or persuasive . To strengthen the argument the author mention the may provide more statistical information about the profits gained by gigantis through reduce price merchandise.
