Mr. White was the third and final owner of the talisman in W. W. Jacobs' short story "The Monkey's Paw." He plucked it from the fireplace when the previous owner, Sergeant Major Morris, tossed it there to burn and end the chain of misfortune that came with it. He is motivated mostly by curiosity, since he seems happy with his life and is financially secure.
Mr. White took the paw from his pocket and eyed it dubiously. "I don't know what to wish for, and that's a fact," he said slowly. "It seems to me I've got all I want."

The percent change for Year 2 compared to the base year is -4.04%
Explanation:
a) Calculations:
Year 1 Sales = $396,000
Year 2 Sales = $380,000
Reduction = $16,000
Percentage reduction = $16,000/$396,000 x 100 = 4.04%
This is a reduction, and it is negative.
b) The change in sales is calculated as the difference between year 1 and year 2 sales over the sales in year 1 multiplied by 100. This is expressed as a percentage by the multiplication by 100. The percent change describes the relationship between the sales figure in year 1 and the sales figure in 2. When calculated as above, it shows that sales reduced in year 2 by 4.04% from the sales in year 1.
Answer and Explanation:
An advertisement that I have seen frequently and that has caught my attention is an advertisement about Shampoo for dogs. This announcement has a color palette that I like very much, it has a feeling of balance and freshness. This makes me believe that the dog will feel these sensations if he uses this product, which makes me want to buy it immediately. The dog images, used in the ad, also reinforce this desire, since all dogs are well treated and with very beautiful hair.
However, an ad that has not convinced me to buy the product is an advert about face moisturizer. Although the advertisement is well produced, it promises a miraculous product with effects beyond the capacity of a moisturizer. When watching the ad I feel somewhat deceived and I have negative feelings about the product.
