OceanWings Ferry Service currently offers boat services connecting a total of five islands: Palmara, Quinzel, Rockford, Selene, and Triton. In the diagram, circles represent the five islands. Each line connecting two circles is a sea route that represents all the direct boat services currently offered between the two corresponding islands, each of which is called a port for all boat services represented by the route. Boat services are offered in both directions for each sea route in the diagram, and all boat services currently offered by OceanWings are represented in the diagram. The label for each sea route shows the time taken, in hours, for the boat service between the two islands the route connects, followed by the average annual revenue, in USD, generated by all OceanWings boat services between the two islands.

If a direct boat service is not available between a passenger’s origin island and destination island, OceanWings passengers may take a sequence of boat services to arrive at their destination. The total time taken for such a journey is the sum of the travel times of all boat services on the trip.

Employee benefits can be rated in terms of Frequency and Instance Cost. The frequency of a benefit is the average number of times a single employee would be expected to receive the benefit over the span of a 20-year career with the company. Instance cost is the average cost incurred by the employer to provide the benefit to a single employee at the moment it is delivered. The frequency/oost ratio (F/C ratio) is computed by dividing the frequency by the instance cost.

A business is considering various benefits to attract and retain employees. From the following list of benefits, select the benefit with the highest F/C ratio and select the benefit with the lowest F/C ratio. Make only two selections, one in each column.
