Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

$4,267,059

Explanation:

to determine the equivalent amount of money between 1924 and 2008, we must divide the 2008 CPI by the 1924 CPI, and then multiply by $36,000:

= (2015 / 17) x $36,000 = 118.53 x $36,000 = $4,267,059

The consumer price index measures the weighted price of basket of goods . It is useful for calculating inflation and comparing how the purchasing value of the US dollar has decreased in time. Basically what this shows us, is that $1 in 1924 would purchase the same amount of goods as $118.53 in 2008.

Explanation:

Corporate advertising is usually done to ensure that the perception of the company's image is positive. The products under the corporation is not a priority in this case, rather its is the company as a whole that needs to be viewed in good light.

This kind of advertising forms part of the public relations techniques used by the company or institution to improve its public image. There are so many companies with different brands under them that utilize this advertising technique to improve their standing in the public eye. It is a way of making the company itself to be a brand by advertising the company as a package.

These companies always want to prove that they care more about the public than they care for the products, in this way they create the perception that the company is primary and anything else is secondary.

Cooperate advertising is majorly used in companies whose business activities have a negative effect to the public. Cooperation that engage in mining activities or activities that affect the environment are likely to utilize this form of advertising.
