Answer:
What Paul has done wrong is to place these marketing materials on seats. He should devised a plan to give out these materials at the registration point where participants would be registered and then they would collect the items. By placing them on the seats, some of the participants could collect more than one, especially the valuable pen that is worth $3 each.
Explanation:
Marketing materials cost the entity some funds to produce. They should not be wasted. In addition, the number of participants with some details like names and contact information should be captured for future marketing efforts. Allowing participants to have free access to the marketing materials that cost so much without driving any potential customer list is not prudent.

Answer:
d.$38,448
Explanation:
The computation of the expected change in net income is shown below:
The net purchase for one day = $11,760
For 20 days excluding discount period i.e 10 days , it would be
= $11,760 × 20 days
= $235,200
The interest would be
= $235,200 × 10%
= $23,520
Now the gross purchase is
= (Net purchase × total number of days in a year) ÷ (1 - discount rate)
= ($11,760 × 365 days) ÷ (1 - 0.02)
= $4,292,400 ÷ 0.98
= $4,380,000
The discount is
= $4,380,000 × 0.02
= $87,600
After tax rate, the change in net income would be
= ($87,600 - $23,520) × (1 - tax rate)
= $64,080 × 0.60
= $38,448
