Answer:
If the carrot doesn't work, try the stick.
Explanation:
This phrase clearly describes how advertising and promotions work:
If the carrot doesn't work: the tempting carrot refers to advertisement, and the doesn't work part refers to advertisement that is not able to change consumer habits and increase sales.
Try the stick refers to offering promotions or positive incentives like discounts or larger packs.
Another example would be the penalty imposed on individuals that refused to purchase health care insurance (eliminated in 2018). The carrot were the benefits obtained by having health insurance and the stick was the negative incentive (or penalty) imposed as a fine for those who didn't purchase health insurance.
Answer:
c) $ 24,200

Answer: $38,200
Explanation:
There are 28,000 Outstanding shares with a $13 market value.
That means that in total they are valued at,
= 28,000 * 13
= $364,000
The firm announced a 15% dividend so we take 15% of the total amount.
= 15% * 364,000
= $54,600
$54,600 is the total amount they will pay as dividends.
Dividends are taken from the Retained Earnings meaning that the balance in Retained earnings is therefore,
= $92,800 - $54,600
= $38,200
$38,200 will be the balance in the retained earnings account after the dividend.
