Which negotiations can walk away from the negotiation. Thompson (2009) suggested calculating resistance point as the sun of all options multiplied by their probability. It is important to bear in mind however that not all issues come conveniently in counts and amounts. Establishing a good relationship with the other party, or reaching a settlement by a certain date, for example, may be important but do not naturally have a dollar value attached. Therefore, to make reasonable comparisons possible that include both tangible and intangible issues, we can use the value scoring system described above. For example a job candidate is interviewing with three companies. Base on thorough research, s/he knows that company A tends to pay new hires in her position 65,000 per year, and give them a three-week vacation per year as well as a new laptop for work purposes. Company B may be willing to offer 67,000, only a two-week vacation, but also a new laptop. Company may pay as much as 70,000, give two weeks of vacation, as well as a nice large office with all technological equipment including videoconferencing. To make these options comparable, the candidate can assign a common unit of measurement to the vacation days and office equipment. If s/he decides that both the extra week of vacation and the better office equipment would be worth 5000 to her, this will bring the overall value of the three options to the following:
