Explanation:
Industries dedicated to consumer service are those whose product is directed directly to a consumer, and not to a company.
The product they offer is a service, and not a material good.
These industries will have professionals or people specialized in the subject who will be in charge of offering and selling this product.
That is what we see in the examples.
The health industry will offer services dedicated to health, therefore it will have professionals dedicated to this field.
The legal industry will have services dedicated to legal issues such as a lawyer, a litigator, etc.

Explanation:
Increasing the revenue of a firm depends on two factors which are price and effective demand. An increase in price without a fall in demand will increase revenue, an increase in demand without a fall in price will equally increase revenue.

E.g
Year. $ Price. Demand. Revenue$
1. 5. 100. 500
2. 6. 80. 480
The above illustrate an increase in price without a rise or maintaining the same level of demand leads fall in revenue.

Answer:
Preferred stocks
Explanation:
Preferred stocks are those that must be paid dividends first than common stock. The same thing happens in case of bankruptcy: preffered stock holders get paid first than common stock holders, although both are paid after bondholders.
The downside of preferred stocks is that they do not transfer control in the company. While common stock owners have the right to vote in company matters, preferred stock owners do not have that right.
