What should be done with equipment that is not operable or not functioning as per the manufacturer's specifications?

Repaired or discarded
Sold at a discount
Ignored until a serious problem develops
Stored in the salon's basement or storage area

The correct answer is: Repaired or discarded

It is important to have equipment that is functioning properly in a salon. Option B, selling at a discount, may seem like a viable option, but it can be seen as deceitful to customers if they are not aware of the equipment's faulty nature. Ignoring the issue until a serious problem develops can result in safety hazards or hinder the quality of services provided. Storing the equipment in a basement or storage area only takes up unnecessary space and does not address the issue. Therefore, the best course of action is to either have the equipment repaired or discarded in order to maintain a safe and professional environment for both employees and clients.
