What can you suggest to warner Edwards in terms of marketing strategy
inessss [21]

Answer:

Warner Bros focuses a lot on the people as an organization whether it’s the employees or the customers. The key people involved are Kevin Tsujihara (Chairman and CEO), Edward A. Romano (Vice Chairman), Toby Emmerich (President and Chief Content Officer). Its parent company TIME Warner has over 31000 employees. The Warner Bros company and its people focus on diversity that helps in multicultural expansion, workforce development and inclusive growth. It does not differentiate between its customers and focus on providing quality content to all across the globe.

I would suggest that only advertisement doesn't make people to buy it.

The income statement is a statement of revenue and costs in order to show the financial performance of an entity during a period of time.  It shows the gross profit and net operating profit or loss.

The Gross profit is the difference between Sales Revenue and the Cost of goods sold.

The Operating Profit (Loss) is the difference between the Gross profit and the Operating costs.
