The equation provided shows that sales are a function of days worked, calls per day, orders per call, and sales per order. Decreasing any of these factors (calls per day, days worked, or orders per call) would not increase sales; it would either decrease sales or have no effect if the decrease is compensated by an increase in another factor.
